Hm... I just noticed that the 'file' utility does not make difference between Excel files and Word files - both are presented as "Microsoft Office Document". I'm out of suggestions but relying on the file's extension can also work, you can just warn the users to pay attention on file's names and especially extensions.

Excel::Writer::XLSX::Package::Packager(3pm)		User Contributed Perl Documentation	       Excel::Writer::XLSX::Package::Packager(3pm)

NAME
Packager - A class for creating the Excel XLSX package. SYNOPSIS
See the documentation for Excel::Writer::XLSX. DESCRIPTION
This module is used in conjunction with Excel::Writer::XLSX to create an Excel XLSX container file. From Wikipedia: The Open Packaging Conventions (OPC) is a container-file technology initially created by Microsoft to store a combination of XML and non-XML files that together form a single entity such as an Open XML Paper Specification (OpenXPS) document. <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_Packaging_Conventions>. At its simplest an Excel XLSX file contains the following elements: ____ [Content_Types].xml | |____ docProps | |____ app.xml | |____ core.xml | |____ xl | |____ workbook.xml | |____ worksheets | | |____ sheet1.xml | | | |____ styles.xml | | | |____ theme | | |____ theme1.xml | | | |_____rels | |____ workbook.xml.rels | |_____rels |____ .rels The "Excel::Writer::XLSX::Package::Packager" class co-ordinates the classes that represent the elements of the package and writes them into the XLSX file.
