The test.xlsx file isn't in a zip file. I thought it was going to create a new file called test.xlsx, but didn't.
Sorry -- confusion. The 'new' in this context doesn't mean it's going to *create* a file. It's creating a new context in order read one of your files that already exists.
Next, I'm not sure
my $excel = Spreadsheet::XLSX -> new ('test.xlsx');
is correct. I would have expected
my $excel = Spreadsheet::XLSX->new ('test.xlsx');
to be better. Does your script produce any warnings when you run it?
You need to get to the point where you're able to open a file in your current directory before we can proceed.

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).
