( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

Xaositect: what you're saying is really interesting, since - I think - I have to do more or less the same thing:

as an example: I have an Excel file with 2 tabs: 1st tab is just data 2nd tab has a few pivot tables using the data.

=> I'd like to create a Perl script that would update the data in the 1st tab, and then save the file with the pivot tables updated (then, the script would read the pivot tab and do stuff, but I can do that already).

For now, I've tried with:
use Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::SaveParser;
I can update the data, but the pivot tables disappear to be replaced by "hard coded" data (I need to keep the pivot tables, so users can play with them on the dates and other stuff they need).

Thanks for your help !

ps: I'm under Solaris... to help things :/ So, as far as I know, I can't use Win32::OLE or VB scripts

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • 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).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
