I have a Perl script that generates an Excel file in XML. Everything
is working wonderfully except for one column where I want to embed line feeds in the cells. I know that I want to include chr(10) (which is the Perl equivalent of char(10) in Excel) for the line breaks. It appears that the characters are there because when I view the XML file in a text editor, the contents of those cells are on separate lines but when I view the file in Excel, the line feed character seems to be replaced with a single space. So, for instance, I have: <Row <Cell ss:StyleID="S1"<Data ss:Type="String"ABC Corp</Data</Cell <Cell ss:StyleID="S1"<Data ss:Type="String"John Doe</Data</Cell <Cell ss:StyleID="S1"<Data ss:Type="String"1234567</Data</Cell <Cell ss:StyleID="S1"<Data ss:Type="String"Line Number 1 Line Number 2 Line Number 3 </Data</Cell </Row But, when opened in Excel, the last cell in the row looks like this: Line Number 1 Line Number 2 Line Number 3 Wrapping is not turned on for the cell. If I make the column narrow, it wraps but not where the line feeds are (unless, of course I adjust it very precisely -- that's not a solution, though because the text length vary too much from row to row). Any ideas? |
