The screen is formatted with specific fields to receive data and this data is provided by the Excel spreadsheet. So my problem is how to transfer automatically from Excel to that screen, knowing that each field to receive a specific data. as an example; the information screen to recieve data has multiple fields such as "Part #, Quantity, Description, etc." and my spreadsheet contains all of this information but each content of the Excel cell must be followed by <return/enter> so the cursor in the screen will jump to the next field and then input the next data.

excel::writer::xlsx::chart::line
Excel::Writer::XLSX::Chart::Line(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Excel::Writer::XLSX::Chart::Line(3pm)
NAME
Line - A class for writing Excel Line charts.
SYNOPSIS
To create a simple Excel file with a Line chart using Excel::Writer::XLSX:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use Excel::Writer::XLSX;
my $workbook = Excel::Writer::XLSX->new( 'chart.xlsx' );
my $worksheet = $workbook->add_worksheet();
my $chart = $workbook->add_chart( type => 'line' );
# Configure the chart.
$chart->add_series(
categories => '=Sheet1!$A$2:$A$7',
values => '=Sheet1!$B$2:$B$7',
);
# Add the worksheet data the chart refers to.
my $data = [
[ 'Category', 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 ],
[ 'Value', 1, 4, 5, 2, 1, 5 ],
];
$worksheet->write( 'A1', $data );
__END__
DESCRIPTION
This module implements Line charts for Excel::Writer::XLSX. The chart object is created via the Workbook "add_chart()" method:
my $chart = $workbook->add_chart( type => 'line' );
Once the object is created it can be configured via the following methods that are common to all chart classes:
$chart->add_series();
$chart->set_x_axis();
$chart->set_y_axis();
$chart->set_title();
These methods are explained in detail in Excel::Writer::XLSX::Chart. Class specific methods or settings, if any, are explained below.
Line Chart Methods
There aren't currently any line chart specific methods. See the TODO section of Excel::Writer::XLSX::Chart.
EXAMPLE
Here is a complete example that demonstrates most of the available features when creating a chart.
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use Excel::Writer::XLSX;
my $workbook = Excel::Writer::XLSX->new( 'chart_line.xlsx' );
my $worksheet = $workbook->add_worksheet();
my $bold = $workbook->add_format( bold => 1 );
# Add the worksheet data that the charts will refer to.
my $headings = [ 'Number', 'Batch 1', 'Batch 2' ];
my $data = [
[ 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 ],
[ 10, 40, 50, 20, 10, 50 ],
[ 30, 60, 70, 50, 40, 30 ],
];
$worksheet->write( 'A1', $headings, $bold );
$worksheet->write( 'A2', $data );
# Create a new chart object. In this case an embedded chart.
my $chart = $workbook->add_chart( type => 'line', embedded => 1 );
# Configure the first series.
$chart->add_series(
name => '=Sheet1!$B$1',
categories => '=Sheet1!$A$2:$A$7',
values => '=Sheet1!$B$2:$B$7',
);
# Configure second series. Note alternative use of array ref to define
# ranges: [ $sheetname, $row_start, $row_end, $col_start, $col_end ].
$chart->add_series(
name => '=Sheet1!$C$1',
categories => [ 'Sheet1', 1, 6, 0, 0 ],
values => [ 'Sheet1', 1, 6, 2, 2 ],
);
# Add a chart title and some axis labels.
$chart->set_title ( name => 'Results of sample analysis' );
$chart->set_x_axis( name => 'Test number' );
$chart->set_y_axis( name => 'Sample length (mm)' );
# Set an Excel chart style. Colors with white outline and shadow.
$chart->set_style( 10 );
# Insert the chart into the worksheet (with an offset).
$worksheet->insert_chart( 'D2', $chart, 25, 10 );
