.SH DESCRIPTION
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
This module is a (quick and dirty) emulation of Spreadsheet::ParseExcel for 
Excel 2007 (.xlsx) file format.  It supports styles and many of Excel's quirks, 
but not all.  It populates the classes from Spreadsheet::ParseExcel for interoperability; 
including Workbook, Worksheet, and Cell.
.SH "SEE ALSO"
.IX Header "SEE ALSO"
.IP Spreadsheet::ParseXLSX 2
.IX Item "Spreadsheet::ParseXLSX"
This module (Spradsheet::XLSX) has some serious issues with the way it uses regexs for parsing the XML.
I would strongly encourage switching to Spreadsheet::ParseXLSX which takes a more reliable approach.

.IP Spreadsheet::Perl 2
.IX Item "Spreadsheet::Perl"
offers a Pure Perl implementation of a
spreadsheet engine. Users that want this format to be supported in
Spreadsheet::Read are hereby motivated to offer patches. It's not high
on my todo-list.
.IP xls2csv 2

<https://metacpan.org/release/KEN/xls2csv\-1.07> offers an alternative for my \f(CW\*(C`xlscat \-c\*(C'\fR,
in the xls2csv tool, but this tool focusses on character encoding
transparency, and requires some other modules.
