Two other possibilities:

1. To take an XML output from excell and tranform the format.
2. To take a CSV output and convert that.

I've used Chaperon to some extend on the latter. - still a little buggy. Hopefully the new chaperon release will overcome a number problems within chaperon's grammar tranformations.

The XML transformations should be pretty easy, as a table deifnition is much simpler than the excell output.

Why not, we can later go on to output Gnumeric file format. A start is always important.

To be honest, I do not require the formulas in the Excel file.


AFAIK only the formulas are stored in the file, not their result.

I need the results of the cells.

And output like:
<Workbook file="AZERTY">
<Sheet name="QSDFGH">
<A><A1>MyName</A1><A2>Something Else</A2></A>
<B><B1>....
</Sheet>
</Workbook>

I'm willing to contribute on it, and I have a developer at hands who can
spend time at it.  I willing to give him 3 days (tomorrow friday and two
days in his weekend off ;-))  to produce something ....


What a poor guy! ;-)
