Hi All, I am working on to interact Perl with MS-Excel under Windows '98. In this regard I am installing a module called Spreadsheet::WriteExcel. As per the instructions at the webpage http://homepage.tinet.ie/~jmcnamara/perl/PerlExcelFaq.html, I went about installing the module. But, I get the below error while installing via the "ppm" utility.
"Error installing package 'Spreadsheet-WriteExcel': Could not locate a PPD file for package Spreadsheet-WriteExcel" Operating System: Windows '98 Perl version : ActiveState Perl v5.6.1 Please see below the snippet of the system interaction while installing the module. Any help would be very highly appreciated.
