PerlCOM used to be part of the PDK but has been removed in PDK 5, I think.
It was never ported to Perl 5.8. You can create a control yourself with
PerlCtrl that does most everything that PerlCOM did.

The PerlCOM part should be irrelevant to your current problem. It is
used in the sample to call from VBA into Perl. I understand you just
want to add a VBA script to an Excel spreadsheet, but the VBA code doesn't
need to execute arbitrary Perl code. The sample did show how to use
the VBA object model to add a code component.
