in reply to Win32::OLE & Excel help

Hi imrags,

I have not benchmarked, but by adding next we can avoid some extra executions. It is not going to boost more performance, but slight improvement will be there.

use strict; use warnings; for my $i (1 .. $LastRow) { if ($Sheet->Range("E$i")->{Value} =~ /MSD/){ next; } else{ $CB_COUNT++; if ( $Sheet->Range("J$i")->{Value} !~ /No_/i){ $NM_COUNT++; } }

OP has updated the code. Posted solution for the previous one.
update: Removed extra 'if' statement in 'else' part.

    You'll get a little extra benefit if you avoid entering a BLOCK, so:

    for my $i (1 .. $LastRow) { next if ($Sheet->Range("E$i")->{Value} =~ /MSD/) ; $CB_COUNT++; next if ($Sheet->Range("J$i")->{Value} =~ /No_/i) ; $NM_COUNT++; }
    but as noted elsewhere, the major time cost is probably in the OLE calls.

    Is it possible to pull a range into an array ? I'm thinking: @stuff = $Sheet->Range("J1:J$lastrow") ?
