Another thing to try if you have a complex spreadsheet (i.e. formulas,
multiple sheets, etc.) is to create the spreadsheet in Excel with all of
the formatting and such you need, then do save as "single file web page
(.mht)" from Excel. 

Open the file up in a Dreamweaver or whatever and dig through the markup
to find the cells you need to be dynamic, and replace them with the
appropriate CF code. Once you spend a little time getting a feel for the
Excel-specific markup then generating rows, columns, etc. isn't too
hard.

Now, rename the file to end in .cfm, and cfinclude the template within
the cfsavecontent from the previous solution, and the rest should work
out the same.

Excel opens it right up with formatting, multiple sheets, formulas etc.
intact. 

I don't know if it would retain, say, charts or pivot tables or more
complex stuff like that (haven't tried it).

This works well for Word also by the way, retaining margins, page
breaks, etc.
