One of my great regrets is that you cant use Perl as Excels macro language.But you can...
Update: I'm posting the text of that link here, because I think its valuable to have in more than one place:
If you haven't got the Microsoft Script Control, download it from some +where in http://msdn.microsoft.com/scripting [microsoft.com]. Then in Excel, set Tools - References - Microsoft Script Control. In your code, you can now eval and execute Perl code, and use it in an +y Functions that you've declared as public - here's a trivial example +: Option Explicit Private sc As New ScriptControl Public Function uc(txt As String) As String sc.Language = "PerlScript" uc = sc.Eval("uc(" & txt & ")") End Function Now you can type =uc("hello") in your spreadsheet to call the above fu +nction. You can even use modules; I had an example using Lingua::EN::Numbers, +but I can't lay my hands on it at the moment. Hope this helps.
