svar has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

This module has always worked for me. However, I just ran into a weird problem with one particular excel file: substr outside of string at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.6/Spreadsheet/ParseExcel.pm line 1849. (this is Spreadsheet:Write Excel version 2.20) The question is, has any fellow monks seen this before and know what it means?
