I have a perl CGI script to read in some text data and email it to a certain email address. What I would like to do is somehow convert the text data into an MS Excel spreadsheet file and email it as an attatchment. I haven't a clue how to do this in my perl script. Any suggestions would be VERY welcome.

Thanks! I installed it last nite and had a go with it. It works brilliantly.

However, rather than saving it as a file I wish to now embed it in an email as an attatchement. I already know how to send an email in perl I just don't know how to embed the excel file data in it instead of writing it to disk.
