Looks like I posted to the wrong area.  oops!

If anyone can provide any advice wrt creating Excel files using OpenOffice.org, I'd appreciate it. You can see my original post in the below.

I'd like to be able to export to an Excel file from my app which will be running in a shop floor environment on a machine which would not have MS Office or Open Office installed.

Would it be feasible to re-use the Excel file writing code from OpenOffice? I downloaded the OO SDK and was scanning the developer's guide, however, it seems to be coming from the approach of connecting to a running OO instance as opposed to re-using OO code in your own app (on a machine which wouldn't have OO installed).

Thanks :-)

I'm developing a commercial app which generates large data sets. We have a need to be able to create Excel files containing the data along

with charts, images, etc. I was thinking a good option might be to re-use the relevant OpenOffice.org code to do the Excel file format writing and thought I'd check to see if anyone else had taken this approach before and how it worked out.

I think this question belongs to [email protected], because you'll find
there the developers, who are working on the code. I guess, that they
might help you better than we can do here. On this list, we're
developing the documentation for the endusers.
I'm forwarding your email to the above mentioned list, please check it
for answers to your question.
Thanks :-)
