I just write the ResultSet to a file with the extension '.xls' so it opens
in Excel.

There are some interesting issues with Excel though. If it sees a big number
(like 16 digits, the size of a credit card number) it loves to assume they
are numeric and writes them in scientific notation (1234123412341234 becomes
1.2341e+15) and MM/YY dates become MM/YY/<this year>. The best way to handle
it is to have four fields for CC number and two for expiry and then parse
the values before writing them
