Perhaps the easiest way to do this is with Adobe's ColdFusion.
To get started... the developer version of ColdFusion is free.

I dump csv files and convert to true excel with perl using
Spreadsheet::WriteExcel module. Once scripted it's pretty painless and
automated.

The CSV format is really pretty simple. Commas between fields. If a field

Makes one long for CrowFlite, doesn't it?
For those that don't remember, CrowFlite was an add-in to Excel that
allowed it, at a per-cell level, to reach back into a Pick database and
grab individual pieces of data. In other words, it was a pull solution
as well as a push.
