I'm using Perl to parse through an Excel file and I'm having trouble
with a date field. The date displays as 1-Jan-63 (for example) but
when the script runs it is printing as
"Win32::OLE::Variant=SCALAR(0x2626704)" If I print it using two $
signs then Perl prints it as "39047808"
So I guess I have two questions:
1) How does the extra $ sign change anything?
2) How do I get the data from Excel to print in Perl as dd/mm/yy ?
Thanks in advance for your thelp,
Chris
