Excel can read the following kinds of files:
comma delimited files
tab delimited files
HTML tables
I prefer HTML tables as you get to keep all the
formatting information.
For example, if you cut and paste the following table
code into a file
<table>
<tr>
<td><b>heading</b></td>
<td><i>italic</i></td>
<td><font color="#123456">colored</font></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td bgcolor="#FEDCBA">data</td>
<td>one</td>
<td>two</td>
</tr>
</table>
You can open it with excel and see the result.
This doesn't exactly answer your question as I'm not
sure exactly how dynamic you need your data to be.
