Just re-read a little bit of your last message and you talk about a template
that someone else is building. Does this mean that you will have an Excel
template that you must open and populate with data? Furthermore, will there
be validations on one or more of the sheets that you must modify with data
recovered from the database? If so, then this may cause problems as, at the
current moment, only the XSSF stream allows you to recover validations from
a sheet as far as I am aware. I have never done so but think, from looking
at the javadoc, that it should be possible to modify existing validations if
you are working with one of the newer OpenXML based files (a .xlsx file).
