\& REPORTING A BUG OR ASKING A QUESTION
\&
\& Feel free to report bugs or ask questions. However, to save time
\& consider the following steps first:
\&
\& Read the documentation:
\&
\& The Spreadsheet::WriteExcel documentation has been refined in
\& response to user questions. Therefore, if you have a question it is
\& possible that someone else has asked it before you and that it is
\& already addressed in the documentation. Since there is a lot of
\& documentation to get through you should at least read the table of
\& contents and search for keywords that you are interested in.
\&
\& Look at the example programs:
\&
\& There are over 70 example programs shipped with the standard
\& Spreadsheet::WriteExcel distribution. Many of these were created in
\& response to user questions. Try to identify an example program that
\& corresponds to your query and adapt it to your needs.

\& HINTS_1
\& print "Press enter ..."; <STDIN>;
\&
\& print << \*(AqHINTS_2\*(Aq;
\&
\& If you submit a bug report here are some pointers.
\&
\& 1. Put "WriteExcel:" at the beginning of the subject line. This helps
\& to filter genuine messages from spam.
\&
\& 2. Describe the problems as clearly and as concisely as possible.
\&
\& 3. Send a sample program. It is often easier to describe a problem in
\& code than in written prose.
\&
\& 4. The sample program should be as small as possible to demonstrate the
\& problem. Don\*(Aqt copy and past large sections of your program. The
\& program should also be self contained and working.
\&
\& A sample bug report is generated below. If you use this format then it

.SS "Example: autofit.pl"
.IX Subsection "Example: autofit.pl"
Simulate Excel's autofit for column widths.
.PP
Excel provides a function called Autofit (Format\->Columns\->Autofit) that
adjusts column widths to match the length of the longest string in a column.
Excel calculates these widths at run time when it has access to information
about string lengths and font information. This function is *not* a feature
of the file format and thus cannot be implemented by Spreadsheet::WriteExcel.
.PP
However, we can make an attempt to simulate it by keeping track of the
longest string written to each column and then adjusting the column widths
prior to closing the file.
.PP
We keep track of the longest strings by adding a handler to the \fIwrite()\fR
function. See \fIadd_handler()\fR in the S::WE docs for more information.
.PP
The main problem with trying to simulate Autofit lies in defining a
relationship between a string length and its width in a arbitrary font and
size. We use two approaches below. The first is a simple direct relationship
obtained by trial and error. The second is a slightly more sophisticated
method using an external module. For more complicated applications you will
probably have to work out your own methods.

Example of how to use the Spreadsheet::WriteExcel module to send an Excel
file to a browser in a \s-1CGI\s0 program.
.PP
On Windows the hash-bang line should be something like:
.PP
.Vb 1
\& #!C:\ePerl\ebin\eperl.exe
.Ve
.PP
The \*(L"Content-Disposition\*(R" line will cause a prompt to be generated to save
the file. If you want to stream the file to the browser instead, comment out
that line as shown below.

Example of formatting using the Spreadsheet::WriteExcel module via
property hashes.
.PP
Setting format properties via hashes of values is useful when you have
to deal with a large number of similar formats. Consider for example a
chess board pattern with black squares, white unformatted squares and
a border.
.PP
This relatively simple example requires 14 separate Format
objects although there are only 5 different properties: black
background, top border, bottom border, left border and right border.
.PP
Using property hashes it is possible to define these 5 sets of
properties and then add them together to create the 14 Format
configurations.

Example of how use Spreadsheet::WriteExcel to generate Excel outlines and
grouping.
.PP
Excel allows you to group rows or columns so that they can be hidden or
displayed with a single mouse click. This feature is referred to as outlines.
.PP
Outlines can reduce complex data down to a few salient sub-totals or
summaries.
.PP
This feature is best viewed in Excel but the following is an \s-1ASCII\s0
representation of what a worksheet with three outlines might look like.
Rows 3\-4 and rows 7\-8 are grouped at level 2. Rows 2\-9 are grouped at
level 1. The lines at the left hand side are called outline level bars.

Demonstrates how to wrap data from one worksheet onto another.
.PP
Excel has a row limit of 65536 rows. Sometimes the amount of row data to be
written to a file is greater than this limit. In this case it is a useful
technique to wrap the data from one worksheet onto the next so that we get
something like the following:
.PP

\& Sheet1 Row 1 \- 65536
\& Sheet2 Row 65537 \- 131072
\& Sheet3 Row 131073 \- ...
.Ve
.PP
In order to achieve this we use a single worksheet reference and
reinitialise it to point to a new worksheet when required.

Example of formatting using the Spreadsheet::WriteExcel module
.PP
This example shows how to wrap text in a cell. There are two alternatives,
vertical justification and text wrap.
.PP
With vertical justification the text is wrapped automatically to fit the
column width. With text wrap you must specify a newline with an embedded \en.

\&
\&
\& lecxe \- A Excel file to Spreadsheet::WriteExcel code converter
\&
\&
\& =head1 DESCRIPTION
\&
\&
\& This program takes an MS Excel workbook file as input and from
\& that file, produces an output file with Perl code that uses the
\& Spreadsheet::WriteExcel module to reproduce the original
\& file.
\&
\&
\& =head1 STUFF
\&
\&
\& Additional hands\-on editing of the output file might be neccecary
\& as:
\&
\&
\& * This program always names the file produced by output script
\& _change_me_.xls
\&
\&
\& * Users of international Excel versions will have som work to do
\& on list separators and numeric punctation characters.
\&
\&
\& =head1 SEE ALSO
\&
\&
\& L<Win32::OLE>, L<Win32::OLE::Variant>, L<Spreadsheet::WriteExcel>
\&
\&
\& =head1 BUGS
\&
\&
\& * Picks wrong color on cells sometimes.
\&
\&
\& * Probably a few other...
\&
\&
\& =head1 DISCLAIMER
\&
\&
\& I do not guarantee B<ANYTHING> with this program. If you use it you
\& are doing so B<AT YOUR OWN RISK>! I may or may not support this
\& depending on my time schedule...

.SS "Example: function_locale.pl"
.IX Subsection "Example: function_locale.pl"
Generate function names for different locales.
.PP
This program can be used to generate the hash of known functions for use in
the Formula.pm module. By default the function names are in English but you
can also choose to support the following languages: German, French, Spanish,
Portuguese, Dutch, Finnish, Italian and Swedish.
.PP
This would allow you to do something like the following:
.PP
.Vb 8
\& $worksheet\->write(0, 0, \*(Aq=SUM(C1:C3)\*(Aq );
\& $worksheet\->write(1, 0, \*(Aq=SUMME(C1:C3)\*(Aq);
\& $worksheet\->write(2, 0, \*(Aq=SOMME(C1:C3)\*(Aq);
\& $worksheet\->write(3, 0, \*(Aq=SUMA(C1:C3)\*(Aq );
\& $worksheet\->write(4, 0, \*(Aq=SOMA(C1:C3)\*(Aq );
\& $worksheet\->write(5, 0, \*(Aq=SOM(C1:C3)\*(Aq );
\& $worksheet\->write(6, 0, \*(Aq=SUMMA(C1:C3)\*(Aq);
\& $worksheet\->write(7, 0, \*(Aq=SOMMA(C1:C3)\*(Aq);
.Ve
.PP
Unfortunately, if you wish to support more than one language there are some
conflicts between function names:
.PP
.Vb 6
\& Function Language 1 Language 2
\& ======== ========== ==========
\& NB French Dutch
\& NA English/French Finnish
\& TRIM French English
\& DIA Spanish/Portuguese German
.Ve
.PP
Therefore, if you try to generate a hash of function names to support both
French and English then the function \s-1TRIM\s0 will be assigned the meaning of the
first language that defines it, which in this case is French. You can get
around this by renaming the function for one of the languages and documenting
the change, for example: \s-1TRIM\s0.EN or \s-1TRIM\s0.FR.
.PP
Please note that this only partially solves the problem of localisation.
There are also number formats to consider (1.5 == 1,5) and the fact that the
list separator \*(L",\*(R" and the array separator \*(L";\*(R" are interchanged in different
locales.
.PP
The longest function name is \s-1LOI\s0.NORMALE.STANDARD.INVERSE (29 chars) followed
by \s-1NORM\s0.JAKAUMA.NORMIT.KA\*:A\*:NT (25 chars).
The shortest function name in all languages is T.

\& # Unfortunately, if you wish to support more than one language there are some

\& # Function Language 1 Language 2
\& # ======== ========== ==========
\& # NB French Dutch
\& # NA English/French Finnish
\& # TRIM French English
\& # DIA Spanish/Portuguese German
\& #
\& # Therefore, if you try to generate a hash of function names to support both
\& # French and English then the function TRIM will be assigned the meaning of the
\& # first language that defines it, which in this case is French. You can get
\& # around this by renaming the function for one of the languages and documenting
\& # the change, for example: TRIM.EN or TRIM.FR.
\& #
\& # Please note that this only partially solves the problem of localisation.
\& # There are also number formats to consider (1.5 == 1,5) and the fact that the
\& # list separator "," and the array separator ";" are interchanged in different
\& # locales.
\& #
\& # The longest function name is LOI.NORMALE.STANDARD.INVERSE (29 chars) followed
\& # by NORM.JAKAUMA.NORMIT.KA\*:A\*:NT (25 chars).
\& # The shortest function name in all languages is T.

This is an example of how to extend the Spreadsheet::WriteExcel module.
.PP
Code is appended to the Spreadsheet::WriteExcel::Worksheet module by reusing
the package name. The new code provides a \fIwrite()\fR method that allows you to
use Excels A1 style cell references. This is not particularly useful but it
serves as an example of how the module can be extended without modifying the
code directly.
