Okay, made some progress on this and now have a better understanding of what I need to do.
cf_HTML2Excel connects to the Excel COM object which is great, but now I need to figure out how to translate this: Cells.Replace What:="@", Replacement:="'", LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder _ :=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False to run in the cfscript that is interacting with the COM object. I've tried a variety of things but I'm not sure how to proceed. I don't think I can save a macro since the workbook will constantly be changing. Any thoughts or ideas? Thanks!
