Without getting into any religious debate here, either straight JDBC or the
Borland stuff should work about the same.  No control needs to be written.
Both effective open a "dataset" and allow you to walk the structure.  What
you're planning to do is shove the data row by row to the HSSF structure,
no?  My personal preference is plain old JDBC calls.  The Borland wrapper
components are used much more for "bound" interface work.  Based on that I
would think that straight JDBC would be slightly faster, if there is a
difference.  That said, either way should work.

Kind regards,
Jeff

Let me ask you this then.  If I don't use the borland approach, what is your
preferred way of getting stuff from a database and pushing it to excel?
