Another option is for HTML coders primarily, and does not create Excel files
with the same richness as the java methods.  If you know HTML, it might be
easier though.  You could write the data to an HTML file in the IFS, using
HTML tables.  This is done pretty easily with data structures with the table
tags and such preinitialized in the data structures.

When you create the file in the IFS, give it an extension of '.XLS'.  Even
though it is an HTML file, Excel will open it and display it as though it
were an Excel file.  You can even embed formulas in the table cells, and
they will build real Excel formulas.
