Then we process it with the following program: #!/usr/bin/perl use strict; use warnings; use Spreadsheet::ParseExcel; use Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::SaveParser; # Open an existing file with SaveParser my $parser = Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::SaveParser->new(); my $template = $parser->Parse('template.xls'); # Get the first worksheet. my $worksheet = $template->worksheet(0); my $row = 0; my $col = 0; # Overwrite the string in cell A1 $worksheet->AddCell( $row, $col, 'New string' ); # Add a new string in cell B1 $worksheet->AddCell( $row, $col + 1, 'Newer' ); # Add a new string in cell C1 with the format from cell A3. my $cell = $worksheet->get_cell( $row + 2, $col ); my $format_number = $cell->{FormatNo}; $worksheet->AddCell( $row, $col + 2, 'Newest', $format_number ); # Write over the existing file or write a new file. $template->SaveAs('newfile.xls'); We should now have an Excel file that looks like this: ----------------------------------------------------- | | A | B | C | ----------------------------------------------------- | 1 | New string | Newer | *Newest* | ... | 2 | World | ... | ... | ... | 3 | *Bold text* | ... | ... | ... | 4 | ... | ... | ... | ... | 5 | ... | ... | ... | ... =head1 DESCRIPTION The C module rewrite an existing Excel file by reading it with C and rewriting it with C. =head1 METHODS =head1 Parser =head2 new() $parse = new Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::SaveParser(); Constructor. =head2 Parse() $workbook = $parse->Parse($sFileName); $workbook = $parse->Parse($sFileName , $formatter); Returns a L object. If an error occurs, returns undef. The optional C<$formatter> is a Formatter Class to format the value of cells. =head1 Workbook The C method returns a C object. This is a subclass of the L and has the following methods: =head2 worksheets() Returns an array of L objects. This was most commonly used to iterate over the worksheets in a workbook: for my $worksheet ( $workbook->worksheets() ) { ... } =head2 worksheet() The C method returns a single C object using either its name or index: $worksheet = $workbook->worksheet('Sheet1'); $worksheet = $workbook->worksheet(0); Returns C if the sheet name or index doesn't exist. =head2 AddWorksheet() $workbook = $workbook->AddWorksheet($name, %properties); Create a new Worksheet object of type C. The C<%properties> hash contains the properties of new Worksheet. =head2 AddFont $workbook = $workbook->AddFont(%properties); Create new Font object of type C. The C<%properties> hash contains the properties of new Font. =head2 AddFormat $workbook = $workbook->AddFormat(%properties); The C<%properties> hash contains the properties of new Font. =head1 Worksheet Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::SaveParser::Worksheet Worksheet is a subclass of Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::Worksheet. And has these methods : The C method returns a C object. This is a subclass of the L and has the following methods: =head1 AddCell $workbook = $worksheet->AddCell($row, $col, $value, $format [$encoding]); Create new Cell object of type C. The C<$format> parameter is the format number rather than a full format object. To specify just same as another cell, you can set it like below: $row = 0; $col = 0; $worksheet = $template->worksheet(0); $cell = $worksheet->get_cell( $row, $col ); $format_number = $cell->{FormatNo}; $worksheet->AddCell($row +1, $coll, 'New data', $format_number); =head1 TODO Please note that this module is currently (versions 0.50-0.60) undergoing a major restructuring and rewriting. =head1 Known Problems You can only rewrite the features that Spreadsheet::WriteExcel supports so macros, graphs and some other features in the original Excel file will be lost. Also, formulas aren't rewritten, only the result of a formula is written. Only last print area will remain. (Others will be removed) =head1 AUTHOR Maintainer 0.40+: John McNamara jmcnamara@cpan.org Maintainer 0.27-0.33: Gabor Szabo szabgab@cpan.org Original author: Kawai Takanori kwitknr@cpan.org =head1 COPYRIGHT Copyright (c) 2009 John McNamara Copyright (c) 2006-2008 Gabor Szabo Copyright (c) 2000-2002 Kawai Takanori and Nippon-RAD Co.
