in reply to excel to hash

Spreadsheet-ExcelHashTable has only one release on CPAN that is six years old, has practically no tests, and is failing those that it does have (POD tests). If I had to guess, perhaps the underlying module Spreadsheet::ParseExcel has changed its API, or there is some other underlying problem. However, personally I would stay away from that module, you may want to look at Spreadsheet::Read and the modules it depends on instead.
