I wanted to build an awesome place for people to discuss module specific issues, but I don't have any more time for this, and there are much better places to discuss Perl-related issues. I'd recommend asking your question on Stack Overflow or on Perl Monks.
If you are looking for a Perl tutorial or Perl-related news, I hope these links will serve you well.

How to read cell comments from an xls?
I am trying to read xls data along with cell comments. I am able to read all data except for any cell comments. I am trying to read data from Office 2003/7 on 32 bit Windows. Thanks in advance for your help. -Jitendra

Unfortunately, that isn't currently possible with Spreadsheet::ParseExcel.

Thanks John for the quick reply and the information! Is there any way I can use Perl to read those comments, btw?

You could probably do it on Windows with Win32::OLE and Excel. I don't have an example however.

This feature may be added to ParseExcel in a future release but I cannot make any promises.
