Formatting Shell script output to Excel
I am facing a problem formatting the output of my shell script in excel.
We are directing the output of the script to an excel sheet and need long integer type data printed in Excel as it is (i.e. not in the default scientific notation).
Also, leading zeroes(if any) in the output are getting truncated in the excel file.
For example:
Output of the shell script: 012310004594882
Current output from Excel: 1.231E+13
Desired output in Excel sheet: 012310004594882
Could someone help me with this.
I am using ksh.

excel::template::container::worksheet
Excel::Template::Container::Worksheet(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Excel::Template::Container::Worksheet(3pm)
NAME
Excel::Template::Container::Worksheet - Excel::Template::Container::Worksheet
PURPOSE
To provide a new worksheet.
NODE NAME
WORKSHEET
INHERITANCE
Excel::Template::Container
ATTRIBUTES
o NAME
This is the name of the worksheet to be added.
o PROTECT
If the attribute exists, it will mark the worksheet as being protected. Whatever value is set will be used as the password.
This activates the HIDDEN and LOCKED nodes.
o KEEP_LEADING_ZEROS
This will change the behavior of the worksheet to preserve leading zeros.
o HIDE_GRIDLINE
his method is used to hide the gridlines on the screen and printed page. Gridlines are the lines that divide the cells on a worksheet.
Screen and printed gridlines are turned on by default in an Excel worksheet. If you have defined your own cell borders you may wish to
hide the default gridlines.
$worksheet->hide_gridlines();
The following values of $option are valid:
0 : Don't hide gridlines
1 : Hide printed gridlines only
2 : Hide screen and printed gridlines
If you don't supply an argument or use undef the default option is 1, i.e. only the printed gridlines are hidden.
o LANDSCAPE
This will set the worksheet's orientation to landscape.
o PORTRAIT
This will set the worksheet's orientation to portrait.
While this is the default, it's useful to override the default at times. For example, in the following situation:
<workbook landscape="1">
<worksheet>
...
</worksheet
<worksheet portrait="1">
...
</worksheet
<worksheet>
...
</worksheet
</workbook>
In that example, the first and third worksheets will be landscape (inheriting it from the workbook node), but the second worksheet will
be portrait.
o AUTOFILTER
With these attribute, you can add the autofilter to a worksheet. An autofilter is a way of adding drop down lists to the headers of a
2D range of worksheet data. This is turn allow users to filter the data based on simple criteria so that some data is shown and some
is hidden.
Example to add an autofilter to a worksheet:
<workbook>
<worksheet autofilter='A1:D11' />
<worksheet autofilter='0, 0, 10, 3' />
</workbook>
CHILDREN
None
EFFECTS
None
DEPENDENCIES
None
USAGE
<worksheet name="My Taxes">
... Children here
</worksheet>
In the above example, the children will be executed in the context of the "My Taxes" worksheet.
