Depending on what you're trying to do... POI/HSSF
might be fairly simple, as someone else suggested.
HSSF via Cocoon looks like a fair amount of investment
to learn.  The easiest workaround, however, since you
are posting to the iText forum, is to write your iText
Document to an HtmlWriter.  Excel opens HTML very
nicely.  I have had fine success opening a writer
pointing to a ".xml" file.  Windows knows to open in
in Excel due to its extension, then Excel opens the
HTML file.  I have never had a complaint from a user.
When the user closes the document they will get a
prompt asking them whether they want to save the
document in Excel format.  Since the version is
included in this prompt, they will simply assume that
this spreadsheet was created with an older version of
Excel and they may then save it as Excel if they wish.
 This approach does not work so well with extremely
large HTML documents, but it's easy to test.  I would
think you could do this from a servlet as well, if you
marked the OutputStream with the Excel mimetype
("application/vnd.ms-excel"?), but I've never tested
it.
