Re: Adding new worksheet to existing Excel workbook

in reply to Adding new workbook to existing excel

If you are in a Windows environment, you could use Win32::OLE to work with Excel. Adding a new worksheet can be done like this:

#___ ADD NEW WORKSHEET

$workbook -> Worksheets -> Add({After => $workbook -> Worksheets($work
+book -> Worksheets -> {Count})});  

note: The line above has been taken from this great example, which you surely want to check out.

I definitely concur with this.   Fire up the Excel application in this manner, and tell it what you want it to do.

It took Microsoft a bunch of years to finally get OLE “really right,” and for computers to grow-up enough to easily handle it ... but ... they did and they did.   Do it that way.
