Hi,

Any help with the Excel filter would be great.  I was planning to start
working on the KSpread Excel export filter this weekend.

Writing a libexport for KSpread sounds like a good idea, although
I'm not expert on KOffice filters by any means (just read the 
libexport/DESIGN.html document by Ariya and Nicolas).

This is how I created a Excel workbook using the new POI model:
