Hi all
I am trying to delete an Excel Worksheet Sheet2 through perl. The part of the code is as below

use Win32::OLE qw(in with);
use Win32::OLE::Const 'Microsoft Excel';
use Win32::OLE::Variant;
use Win32::OLE::NLS qw(:LOCALE :DATE);
use Win32::OLE;
use Win32::OLE::Const;
#use Win32::API;
$Win32::OLE::Warn = 3; # die on errors...

my $Constant = Win32::OLE::Const->Load('Microsoft Excel');
$Excel = Win32::OLE->new('Excel.Application', 'Quit') ||
die "Error launching MS Excel ".Win32::OLE->LastError; 

$Book = $Excel->Workbooks->Add;

$Sheet = $Book->Worksheets(1);
$Sheet->{Name} = "Sheet1";
$Excel->WorkSheets("Sheet2")->Delete();
[download]

But when I execute this, Excel will ask for deletion conformation. it pops up a menu saying

The selected Sheet(s) will be permanently deleted.

. to delete the selected sheets, click ok
. to cancel the deletion click, cancel
[download]

Now How can a sheet in Excel be deleted such that excel will not ask for any conformation?
Thanks in advance

• Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:

  <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>

• Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
