in reply to ParseExcel difficulties

Try the latest version of Spreadsheet::ParseExcel which has a parser error() method that may report some useful information:

... my $parser = Spreadsheet::ParseExcel->new(); my $workbook = $parser->parse('Book1.xls'); if ( !defined $workbook ) { die $parser->error(), ".\n"; } ...

It may be that you are trying to parse an encrypted file or an xlsx file.

That memory reduction technique is also included in the main documentation now.
