.IX Header "CAUTION"
A saved file with \s-1VBA\s0 (a.k.a Macros) by this module will not work correctly.
However modules can get the same information from the file,
the file occurs a error in application(Word, Excel ...).
.SH "DEPRECATED FEATURES"
.IX Header "DEPRECATED FEATURES"
Older version of \f(CW\*(C`OLE::Storage_Lite\*(C'\fR autovivified a scalar ref in the \f(CW\*(C`new()\*(C'\fR constructors into a scalar filehandle. This functionality is still there for backwards compatibility but it is highly recommended that you do not use it. Instead create a filehandle (scalar or otherwise) and pass that in.
