I've done things that are almost identical to what Neil suggests, and
I've also done a lot of work on calling Haskell code from Excel via
the Excel4 (XLL) API, but not so much work on calling COM from Haskell.
It's all doable, but it's a lot of work. And the code I've written
is proprietary, I'm afraid.

Subject: [Haskell-cafe] COM and Haskell
All,
I'm interested in automating Excel using Haskell. I'm writing a
little program for my wife and it'd be nice to fill out an Excel
spreadsheet for her (with formatting so I don't think CSV will cut
it). A bit of Googling didn't turn up anything interesting.
Has any work been done on using Excel (or more generally, COM) from
Haskell?
Thanks for any pointers!
Justin
p.s. I'm aware of the article "Spreadsheet for Functional
Programmers" article and Neil Mitchell's post about HsExcel - but
those go the wrong way :(
