I've used the script below

A.
BEGIN { FS = ","
RS = "\n"
OFS="\t"
}
{
print $1, $2, $3, $4, $5
}

Followed by

B.
awk -f abc < report.csv > report.xls

This generates the report I'm looking for, excellent!!!

However I now have some other questions

1. I would like the B. script above to find the csv file for the current day and convert that into the Excel format. The CSV file usual ends with a date format like: f_Jul30.csv.
How would I do this?

2. I would like to automatically insert a column into the excel sheet that would perfmon a1/(b1-k1) and result in a percentage value. Reason I cant do it from the original is because it's run from root.

3.How would I tranfer it from Linux to Windows?

Thanks!

Spreadsheet::XLSX::Utility2007 - Utility function for Spreadsheet::XLSX SYNOPSIS
use strict; #Declare use Spreadsheet::XLSX::Utility qw(ExcelFmt ExcelLocaltime LocaltimeExcel); #Convert localtime ->Excel Time my $iBirth = LocaltimeExcel(11, 10, 12, 23, 2, 64); # = 1964-3-23 12:10:11 print $iBirth, " "; # 23459.5070717593 #Convert Excel Time -> localtime my @aBirth = ExcelLocaltime($iBirth, undef); print join(":", @aBirth), " "; # 11:10:12:23:2:64:1:0 #Formatting print ExcelFmt('yyyy-mm-dd', $iBirth), " "; #1964-3-23 print ExcelFmt('m-d-yy', $iBirth), " "; # 3-23-64 print ExcelFmt('#,##0', $iBirth), " "; # 23,460 print ExcelFmt('#,##0.00', $iBirth), " "; # 23,459.51 print ExcelFmt('"My Birthday is (m/d):" m/d', $iBirth), " "; # My Birthday is (m/d): 3/23 DESCRIPTION
Spreadsheet::XLSX::Utility exports utility functions concerned with Excel format setting. ExcelFmt is used by Spreadsheet::XLSX::Fmt2007.pm which is used by Spreadsheet::XLSX. Functions This module can export 3 functions: ExcelFmt, ExcelLocaltime and LocaltimeExcel. ExcelFmt $sTxt = ExcelFmt($sFmt, $iData [, $i1904]); $sFmt is a format string for Excel. $iData is the target value. If $flg1904 is true, this functions assumes that epoch is 1904. $sTxt is the result. For more detail and examples, please refer sample/chkFmt.pl in this distribution. ex. ExcelLocaltime ($iSec, $iMin, $iHour, $iDay, $iMon, $iYear, $iwDay, $iMSec) = ExcelLocaltime($iExTime [, $flg1904]); ExcelLocaltime converts time information in Excel format into Perl localtime format. $iExTime is a time of Excel. If $flg1904 is true, this functions assumes that epoch is 1904. $iSec, $iMin, $iHour, $iDay, $iMon, $iYear, $iwDay are same as localtime. $iMSec means 1/1,000,000 seconds(ms). LocaltimeExcel $iExTime = LocaltimeExcel($iSec, $iMin, $iHour, $iDay, $iMon, $iYear [,$iMSec] [,$flg1904]) LocaltimeExcel converts time information in Perl localtime format into Excel format . $iSec, $iMin, $iHour, $iDay, $iMon, $iYear are same as localtime. If $flg1904 is true, this functions assumes that epoch is 1904. $iExTime is a time of Excel. col2int $iInt = col2int($sCol); converts a excel row letter into an int for use in an array This function was contributed by Kevin Mulholland. int2col $sCol = int2col($iRow); convert a column number into column letters NOET: This is quite a brute force coarse method does not manage values over 701 (ZZ) This function was contributed by Kevin Mulholland. sheetRef ($iRow, $iCol) = sheetRef($sStr); convert an excel letter-number address into a useful array address NOTE: That also Excel uses X-Y notation, we normally use Y-X in arrays $sStr, excel coord (eg. A2). This function was contributed by Kevin Mulholland. xls2csv $sCsvTxt = xls2csv($sFileName, $sRegion, $iRotate); convert a chunk of an excel file into csv text chunk $sRegions = "sheet-colrow:colrow" (ex. '1-A1:B2' means 'A1:B2' for sheet 1) $iRotate = 0 or 1 (output should be rotated or not) This function was contributed by Kevin Mulholland. AUTHOR
