I tried that because I was thinking of doing a Excel filter too (we talked 
about it).

Anyway, that's cool, because I would have been unable to do what you did, now 
I have to understand it!
I can give you a hand for the Excel filter if you want to.
I read a little bit about Excel format, and I now believe POI is the way to 
go. Even if there may be different licenses for the filter.

I was thinking of doing a libexport for kspread similar to the one for kword. 
I think it makes sense, but I have to look deeper into this.

Now, to come with your test, they moved some classes from 
src/java/org/apache/poi/hssf/eventmodel/
I'm not sure how to create an Excel workbook from their new model.
