Hi Dmitry Thank you for putting this together, you've saved me days of effort! It turns out that Microsoft excel in Excel 2007 zip-xls formats have two secret $formatCode for dates... both 14 and 15 All the other date formats seem to cause "proper" date format string (real members of @styles) so in Module Version: 0.13 the line... elsif ($t1 == 14){ $formatCode="m-d-yy";} simply needs to be... elsif ($t1 == 14 || $t1 == 15 ){ $formatCode="m-d-yy";} Cheers Mark
