Hi Jan,
You're abolutely right - I forgot I had changed the name I was using to set
Sheet1. I changed to a shorter length and it's running perfect.
Thanks much.

RE: win32::ole (excel) question
The first sheet name is never changed from “Sheet1” to begin with because
you are trying to set it to a name with 37 characters. The maximum sheet
name length in Excel is 31 characters.
It would be nice if Excel returned an error if you try to assign an invalid
name, but it doesn’t appear to do so.
Cheers,
-Jan

Subject: win32::ole (excel) question
Hi all,
Weird situation with creating new worksheets and keeping the title in the
tab. I f I create just one everything is fine - when I add a second
worksheet to the workbook the title goes away from the original worksheet.
Code excerpt:
This is where the object is instanciated and the first worksheet is created
and named:
#--create and open the first worksheet
my $excel = Win32::OLE-new(Excel.Application);
$excel-{Visible} = 1;
my $book = $excel-Workbooks-Add;
my $sheet = $book-Worksheets(1);
$sheet-{Name} = Daily Message Volume By Queue Manager;
**cells are filled in and formatted - everything looks great to this point
Here'e where the next worksheet is added:
#--create and open the second worksheet
$sheet = $book-Worksheets-Add;
$sheet-{Name} = Daily Message Volume By Queue;
$sheet-Columns-{ColumnWidth} = 24;
**When this worksheet is created the first worksheet goes back to being
named Sheet1
Any thoughts greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
