Good afternoon. I have a CVS file I want to open up within Excel, sort the file (anywhere from 1000 - 6000 lines of data) based on Column 'F' and then delete all rows with specific data in Column 'F'.
I am only to the point where I can open the file and that is it. The file will not sort for me. My code is short and simple, and does not work how I want it to work. Suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I will end up adding much more to this file after sorting, but I need to get past this point first. Here is my code;
#!perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use Win32::OLE;
use Win32::OLE qw(in with);
use Win32::OLE::Variant;
use Win32::OLE::Const 'Microsoft Excel';
use File::Copy;
$Win32::OLE::Warn = 3; # Die on Errors.
#Open the needed file from server location
my $excelfile = '\\\\ServerName\\FolderName\\FolderName\\FolderName\\F
+ileName.csv';
my $Excel = Win32::OLE->GetActiveObject('Excel.Application')
|| Win32::OLE->new('Excel.Application', 'Quit');
#Open the file needed and activate the worksheet for manipulation ~ Tr
+y to get a input box for entry of Branch name to open correct file...
my $Book = $Excel->Workbooks->Open($excelfile);
my $Sheet = $Book->Worksheets(1);
$Sheet->Activate();
#Sort the file based on "Call Type" Column (F is column number 5, as A
+ is 0)
$Excel->sort_data('WorksheetName',5,'DESC');
I have even attempted to use;
#Find Last Column and Row
my $LastRow = $Sheet->UsedRange->Find({What=>"*", SearchDirection=>xlP
+revious, SearchOrder=>xlByRows})->{Row};
my $LastCol = $Sheet->UsedRange->Find({What=>"*", SearchDirection=>xlP
+revious, SearchOrder=>xlByColumns})->{Column};
to then try a loop type of statement. Yeah, that did not work either. Thank you for any suggestions offered I have a LONG way to go to my end results, and if I am having this many issues with a sort, I am worried about the rest of the requirments.
