J can read/write excel files without excel for years. Dyalog also can
but apparently no one yet have interest because it's too trivial to
use com/.net to do the job. The trap is you must use window and buy
the license for excel. Incidentally Ric Sherlock has written an J
addon that can read excel 2007 xlsx (compressed xml), it works both
under linux and window, and does not need excel.
The appropriate quotation will be "Don't bite the hook".
