The spaces are actually tabs - excel recognises tabs as a valid delimiter and will use them to split the data into columns.
To create a csv file you just need to change the DEFINE DELIMITER parameter to comma and update the filename to csv.
The rest is fine as it is.

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.
