I think this is what you after.
You could setup a xls as a db in CF and just query the data from the
spreadsheet path.

1. Create an empty Excel spreadsheet (placeholder)
2. Create a System DSN for the spreadsheet in the server's ODBC Data Source
Administrator. 
3. Create an ODBC Socket data source in the ColdFusion Administrator,
pointing to the ODBC DSN created in step 2. 
4 Use the IN predicate within the query, specifying the path to the actual
spreadsheet to be used. 

<cfquery name="test" datasource="dynamicXLS">
   SELECT TN_ID
   FROM [CF$]
   IN '#path to your generated spreadsheet#' 'EXCEL 5.0;'
</cfquery>

Subject: Re: File header and footer in excel spreadsheet created with
cxcontent?

I've not done page headers or footers in excel. But, what I would do is set
up the page like you want in excel, and then save it as html.
Find the applicable code and add it to your CF template. I've done that with
excel number formatting to get numbers to display the way I want and such.

page header and footer in the spreadsheet.  Just to be clear, the column
headers print fine, I want to create a header with the spreadsheet title and
a footer with our company name, copyright info, page info and generated
date.  I don't want to see the info until I select print preview or print
out the spreadsheet.  We're still on CF 5.
