Writing excel file using perl : Excel file formatting changed

I am trying to create a program where user can input data in certain excel cells using user interface on internet....the programming is on perl and server is unix

But when i parse data into excel the formatting of sheets is turned to default and all macro coding removed.

What to do...Please Help:confused:

These are limitations of the modules you're using combined with the problems of using a proprietary format.

can u explain which module to use and how???

though i got by google search use Win32::OLE but not able grasp it..

im new with perl please explain.......

What are you using now?

i am using "ParseExcel"

And that is why.

Win32::OLE only works on windows AFAIK.

what to do????

You may have to find a way to solve this which does not involve resaving excel macros. Could you generate a new excel file instead of editing an old one?
