Spreadsheet::XLSX(3pm)					User Contributed Perl Documentation				    Spreadsheet::XLSX(3pm)

NAME
Spreadsheet::XLSX - Perl extension for reading MS Excel 2007 files; SYNOPSIS
use Text::Iconv; my $converter = Text::Iconv -> new ("utf-8", "windows-1251"); # Text::Iconv is not really required. # This can be any object with the convert method. Or nothing. use Spreadsheet::XLSX; my $excel = Spreadsheet::XLSX -> new ('test.xlsx', $converter); foreach my $sheet (@{$excel -> {Worksheet}}) { printf("Sheet: %s ", $sheet->{Name}); $sheet -> {MaxRow} ||= $sheet -> {MinRow}; foreach my $row ($sheet -> {MinRow} .. $sheet -> {MaxRow}) { $sheet -> {MaxCol} ||= $sheet -> {MinCol}; foreach my $col ($sheet -> {MinCol} .. $sheet -> {MaxCol}) { my $cell = $sheet -> {Cells} [$row] [$col]; if ($cell) { printf("( %s , %s ) => %s ", $row, $col, $cell -> {Val}); } } } } DESCRIPTION
This module is a (quick and dirty) emulation of Spreadsheet::ParseExcel for Excel 2007 (.xlsx) file format. It supports styles and many of Excel's quirks, but not all. It populates the classes from Spreadsheet::ParseExcel for interoperability; including Workbook, Worksheet, and Cell. SEE ALSO
Text::CSV_XS, Text::CSV_PP http://search.cpan.org/~hmbrand/ A pure perl version is available on http://search.cpan.org/~makamaka/ Spreadsheet::ParseExcel http://search.cpan.org/~kwitknr/ Spreadsheet::ReadSXC http://search.cpan.org/~terhechte/ Spreadsheet::BasicRead http://search.cpan.org/~gng/ for xlscat likewise functionality (Excel only) Spreadsheet::ConvertAA http://search.cpan.org/~nkh/ for an alternative set of cell2cr () / cr2cell () pair Spreadsheet::Perl http://search.cpan.org/~nkh/ offers a Pure Perl implementation of a spreadsheet engine. Users that want this format to be supported in Spreadsheet::Read are hereby motivated to offer patches. It's not high on my todo-list. xls2csv http://search.cpan.org/~ken/ offers an alternative for my "xlscat -c", in the xls2csv tool, but this tool focusses on character encoding transparency, and requires some other modules.
