If you're happy to limit yourself to distributing your excel file to people
who have excel 2007 (or have the converters for the older versions of
office), or with a manual step of opening it yourself in 2007 and saving-as
in an older version, I have a script that utilises the xml format that Excel
now accepts.  It's a bit ugly as it's got lots of stuff specific to my
organisation, but if you want it can be obtained from
http://bioinformatics.cancerresearchuk.org/cms/index.php?page=gpk-resources

I really should contact the authors of the r/excel packages to see if any of
them would want a cleaned up version of this.
