It seems you do not have Spreadsheet::ParseExcel installed. On the command line try "cpan Spreadsheet::ParseExcel". That should install it for you.

Re^3: how to run this script (permissions) by toolic (Chancellor) on Oct 05, 2012 at 17:25 UTC
when i do ./filename it gives error bash: ./test.pm: Permission denied You probably need to give your `test.pm` file execute permissions, like: `chmod 777 test.pm` [download] Also, conventionally, the `.pm` file name suffix is reserved for Perl module files (see package). It is more common to use the `.pl` file extension for scripts.	[reply] [d/l] [select]

You need to install the Spreadsheet::ParseExcel module. See Yes, even you can use CPAN if you're unfamiliar with that process. It's pretty simple, really, but there are a few variables involved so it's worth reading a little first. Dave	[reply]
