in reply to Using Win32::OLE and Excel - Tips and Tricks

Hi cacharbe,
I'm trying to fill up an excel sheet following a format wich is stored in an excel template (just in a regular excel file).
This tutorial is really help me, but there's still something hard to do : find out wich cells are merged in the template and merging the matching cells in the output file.
I have found the MergeCells property, a boolean that tells you if there are a merged cell in the parent object. MergeArea returns a range of merged cells containing a given cell. My problem is I cant find a way to extract the row & col indexes to reproduce the merge on the output file.
Any idea about, it.
