There is support for reading and writing microsoft formatted documents (.doc and .xsl for sure) on the jakarta web-site. Don't recall the names of the api's right now (POI?). I haven't started using them yet, but from what I read about them I am planning on using the .xsl one api in a similar manner.
Hope that helps.

I am needing to create an application that will display a Microsoft Word document that has fields defined in it. Then the user can modify these fields, and then save these fields back to a database. I know you can do this using Active X and such, but can I do this anyway in JSP/Java? Thanks, Wesley Choate Programmer / Analyst Lavender & Wyatt Systems, Inc.
