Also Have a look at a simple macro which exports Database structures to 
Microsoft Excel here.Its a good stuff.Not sure if it is relevant in this 
context though !

Is it possible to make a native Excel sheet from UNIX? We need basic
formatting of the resulting sheet.
For example the field act_msg is a VARCHAR2 with 4000 Byte. In CSV
this is a mess...


as well as Perl, you can also use the Apache POI libraries, which give a 
Java interface (works fine on any platform). See Apache POI - the Java API 
for Microsoft Documents. I'm using it at the moment, both for reading and 
writing Excel spreadsheets (xls and xlsx both supported).
