Below is the complete code which works great converting all csv files(sorted based on column1) in dest directory to a single xls with multiple tabs.
---------- Post updated at 07:24 PM ---------- Previous update was at 07:23 PM ----------
The xls file(with multiple rows on each sheet) which i am generating with above code will look like below:

column2 duplicates needs to be removed based on merged column1 only.( first three lines of below )
column3 should be unchanged.
need output like below(ignore ___ just filled gaps to show difference) :
any help in extending my original code to meet the requirement is greatly appreciated.

Hi,
There is this requirement to create multiple work sheets in an MS Excel file through UNIX.
We normally can create one work sheet in unix by either tab or comma delimiting and appending .xls or .csv to the file name, but can we create multiple work sheets.

spreadsheet::parseexcel::saveparser
Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::SaveParser(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::SaveParser(3pm)NAME
Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::SaveParser - Rewrite an existing Excel file.
SYNOPSIS
Say we start with an Excel file that looks like this:
-----------------------------------------------------
| | A | B | C |
-----------------------------------------------------
| 1 | Hello | ... | ... | ...
| 2 | World | ... | ... | ...
| 3 | *Bold text* | ... | ... | ...
| 4 | ... | ... | ... | ...
| 5 | ... | ... | ... | ...
Then we process it with the following program:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use Spreadsheet::ParseExcel;
use Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::SaveParser;
# Open an existing file with SaveParser
my $parser = Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::SaveParser->new();
my $template = $parser->Parse('template.xls');
# Get the first worksheet.
my $worksheet = $template->worksheet(0);
my $row = 0;
my $col = 0;
# Overwrite the string in cell A1
$worksheet->AddCell( $row, $col, 'New string' );
# Add a new string in cell B1
$worksheet->AddCell( $row, $col + 1, 'Newer' );
# Add a new string in cell C1 with the format from cell A3.
my $cell = $worksheet->get_cell( $row + 2, $col );
my $format_number = $cell->{FormatNo};
$worksheet->AddCell( $row, $col + 2, 'Newest', $format_number );
# Write over the existing file or write a new file.
$template->SaveAs('newfile.xls');
We should now have an Excel file that looks like this:
-----------------------------------------------------
| | A | B | C |
-----------------------------------------------------
| 1 | New string | Newer | *Newest* | ...
| 2 | World | ... | ... | ...
| 3 | *Bold text* | ... | ... | ...
| 4 | ... | ... | ... | ...
| 5 | ... | ... | ... | ...
DESCRIPTION
The "Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::SaveParser" module rewrite an existing Excel file by reading it with "Spreadsheet::ParseExcel" and rewriting
it with "Spreadsheet::WriteExcel".
METHODS Parser
new()
$parse = new Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::SaveParser();
Constructor.
Parse()
$workbook = $parse->Parse($sFileName);
$workbook = $parse->Parse($sFileName , $formatter);
Returns a "Workbook" object. If an error occurs, returns undef.
The optional $formatter is a Formatter Class to format the value of cells.
Workbook
The "Parse()" method returns a "Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::SaveParser::Workbook" object.
This is a subclass of the Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::Workbook and has the following methods:
worksheets()
Returns an array of "Worksheet" objects. This was most commonly used to iterate over the worksheets in a workbook:
for my $worksheet ( $workbook->worksheets() ) {
...
}
worksheet()
The "worksheet()" method returns a single "Worksheet" object using either its name or index:
$worksheet = $workbook->worksheet('Sheet1');
$worksheet = $workbook->worksheet(0);
Returns "undef" if the sheet name or index doesn't exist.
AddWorksheet()
$workbook = $workbook->AddWorksheet($name, %properties);
Create a new Worksheet object of type "Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::Worksheet".
The %properties hash contains the properties of new Worksheet.
AddFont
$workbook = $workbook->AddFont(%properties);
Create new Font object of type "Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::Font".
The %properties hash contains the properties of new Font.
AddFormat
$workbook = $workbook->AddFormat(%properties);
The %properties hash contains the properties of new Font.
Worksheet
Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::SaveParser::Worksheet
Worksheet is a subclass of Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::Worksheet. And has these methods :
The "Worksbook::worksheet()" method returns a "Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::SaveParser::Worksheet" object.
This is a subclass of the Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::Worksheet and has the following methods:
AddCell
$workbook = $worksheet->AddCell($row, $col, $value, $format [$encoding]);
Create new Cell object of type "Spreadsheet::ParseExcel::Cell".
The $format parameter is the format number rather than a full format object.
To specify just same as another cell, you can set it like below:
$row = 0;
$col = 0;
$worksheet = $template->worksheet(0);
$cell = $worksheet->get_cell( $row, $col );
$format_number = $cell->{FormatNo};
$worksheet->AddCell($row +1, $coll, 'New data', $format_number);
TODO
Please note that this module is currently (versions 0.50-0.60) undergoing a major restructuring and rewriting.
Known Problems
You can only rewrite the features that Spreadsheet::WriteExcel supports so macros, graphs and some other features in the original Excel
file will be lost. Also, formulas aren't rewritten, only the result of a formula is written.
Only last print area will remain. (Others will be removed)
