This is way too complicated.  All you have to do is set the MIME type in the
setContentType() declaration in the servlet delivering the output to
"application/vnd.msExcel" and the browser will automatically display the
output in an Excel spreadsheet.

Struts is Java. Excel is VBA. They don't like each other. One good way 
is to expose your Java (Form) beans via SOAP.
Then in Excel (using Pocket Soap client for example) write a VBA macro 
that gets the SOAP XML data.
You will need to add SOAP interface to you web app server.

SOAP is good for most distributed  or diverse applications and good for 
hetrogenous enviroments. (There is a news list on soap at 
news.strutsplus.com)
