NAME

Spreadsheet::WriteExcel::Simple::Tabs - Simple Interface to the Spreadsheet::WriteExcel Package

SYNOPSIS

use Spreadsheet::WriteExcel::Simple::Tabs;
my $ss=Spreadsheet::WriteExcel::Simple::Tabs->new;
my @data=(
          ["Heading1", "Heading2"],
          ["data1",    "data2"   ],
          ["data3",    "data4"   ],
         );
$ss->add(Tab1=>\@data, Tab2=>\@data);
print $ss->header(filename=>"filename.xls"), $ss->content;

DESCRIPTION

This is a simple wrapper around Spreadsheet::WriteExcel that creates tabs for data. It is ment to be simple not full featured. I use this package to export data from the DBIx::Array sqlarrayarrayname method which is an array of array references where the first array is the column headings.
