Not at all, not at all!
However, as I am working with LibreOffice, presumably somewhere in the
underpinnings of LibreOffice there is a parser which can convert back
and forth between XLS and XML!
As LibreOffice (and Apache Open Office) is OSS I assume one could use
these parsers [although, if one is going to use them in a commercial
development one would end up with a mixed licence] without
having to pay royalties.
Have a look at this:
