Jim,What I mean by true Excel files is a binary file that is native to Excel. Not a delimited text file, or HTML file that Excel can open.The difference is that by generating a true Excel file with POI-HSSF, you have the ability to:
create multiple worksheetssplit and freeze panesdraw

You can create a normal HTML layout, save it as .xls file, and force the download (typically just redirect to the file, pending server setup though). There are tweaks here and there as to how the styling goes but for most situations it will work with no prob. There are more robust ways of doing
The Time Tracker application is not really exporting to excel. it is just saving HTML with a .xls extension.ColdFusion does not have a native way of generating true Excel files either.As far as I know, the two ways to create native excel files on the server side is using COM, or POI-HSSF.
