in thread read-excel.pl: a code sample for Spreadsheet::ParseExcel

Yes- it requires OLE::Storage_Lite, as it says near the top of the README:
REQUIREMENT This module requires these modules: OLE::Storage_Lite Jcode.pm (if you are using FmtJapan, or FmtJapan2) Unicode::Map (if you are using FmtJapan2 or FmtUnicode)
I installed both of these using the CPAN module, which is quite useful if you haven't seen it. The CPAN process automates installation nicely; it asks if you want to fulfill unmet dependencies and install OLE::Storage_Lite. I said yes, it installed OK, and I re-ran 'install Spreadsheet::ParseExcel' with no problems.

There could be further dependencies you'd need to install for OLE::Storage_Lite to work; but it's much easier with the CPAN module.
