I have used perl on a windoz system for a couple years to manipulate ASCII files nothing beyond that.
I have written a simple routine to create a comma separated, (csv) file that is destined for a worksheet on an Excel template. I want to write directly to the worksheet. I have see references to a couple modules, Win32::OLE, Win32::API and Spreadsheet::WriteExcel. However, I have no idea how to find, and install the modules. My understanding is that ppm is used. I have run ppm. I get the ppm prompt and have used help to discover the commands. However, when I enter 'help' followed by a command I get nothing except the ppm prompt back. Any feedback is greatly appreciated. Don
