note pvaldes <p>not related with your question, but I would suggest to write this:</p> <c>use Spreadsheet::WriteExcel; use Spreadsheet::ParseExcel; use Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::Worksheet; use Parse::RecDescent; use Spreadsheet::WriteExcel::Utility; use Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::SaveParser; use Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::Cell;</c> <p>like this:</p> <c>use Parse::RecDescent; use Spreadsheet::WriteExcel qw(Utility); use Spreadsheet::ParseExcel qw(SaveParser Cell Worksheet);</c> <p>Untested but you can get the idea. If you need more functions from the module simply put its names inside qw(), or use qw(all), or omit the qw part:</p> 997021 997021
