I assume you've also added an entry for application/excel to your
external_parsers definition?  You didn't say what it looks like, but it
must be there or I don't think htdig would even fetch the document.

I'd guess that the most likely problem is a configuration problem in
doc2html.pl.  Try running it manually on one of your Excel spreadsheets,
e.g. (all on one line):

  /path/to/doc2html.pl /home/ardopt/software/upload/RB/KarlGustav/ARDOPT_keywords.xls 
application/excel 
http://192.168.0.206/~ardopt/software/upload/RB/KarlGustav/ARDOPT_keywords.xls?articleID=1
 

(of course making sure I guessed correctly at the path to the file above.)

If this works, then make sure external_parsers is set to call it correctly.
