Subject: Re: Parseexcel retrieve strange chars

I print the square code char and it is zero (nil). Please, somebody
help me.

workbook = Spreadsheet::ParseExcel.parse('myspreadsheet.xls')

    # usually, you want the first worksheet:
    worksheet = workbook.worksheet(0)

    # now you can either iterate over all rows, skipping the first
number of
    # rows (in case you know they just contain column headers)
    myVal = worksheet.cell(0,4).value
    puts myVal
