Name        : perl-DateTime-Format-Excel
Product     : Fedora EPEL 5
Version     : 0.2901
Release     : 3.el5
URL         : http://search.cpan.org/dist/DateTime-Format-Excel
Summary     : Convert between DateTime and Excel dates
Description :
Excel uses a different system for its dates than most Unix programs.
This module allows you to convert between a few of the Excel raw formats
and DateTime objects, which can then be further converted via any of
the other DateTime::Format::* modules, or just with DateTime's
methods.If you happen to be dealing with dates between 1 Jan 1900 and 1
Mar 1900 please read the notes on EPOCHS. If you're wanting to handle
actual spreadsheet files, you may find the Spreadsheet::WriteExcel
manpage and the Spreadsheet::ParseExcel manpage of use.
