Hi,

The issue here is that single quotes don't allow interpolation
(variable evaluation) in perl. For example consider the output of the
following:

    my $str = 'Hello';

    print '$str';   # Prints: $str
    print "\n";

    print "$str";   # Prints: Hello
    print "\n";

So you probably need something like this:

    $worksheet->write_formula($row, $col, "=DATEVALUE($field[$j])",
$format_date);

See the following for more information:

John.
