I've used this method a few times, but I thought that you needed to include
the data in an HTML table to make it work - or so it says in Marty Halls
Core Servlets. Has anyone been able to use this method to include, in
addition to the data, formatting instructions (i.e. change the color of a
cell) or formulae.

If you are talking about use Servlet to generate Excel file on the Web.
Here is another way without use a .CSV file.

1. set your output content type as something like this:
response.setHeader("Content-Disposition","attachment");
response.setContentType("application/vnd.ms-excel");

2. use '\t' and '\n' as something like this:
m_ObjectData(iRow,iCol,i,allObjs);
sb.append("\r\n");

3. output to screen as something like this:
out.println(sb.toString());
