Sorry, I misunderstood you! I'm fine with "good old excel", I just thought you mean the new MS xml format - which spec is about 4000 pages so ODF (~700 pages) seems rather small.
I just had a look at the ODF spec and the tables part doesn't seem this much complex - so if you could keep it in mind it should be quite painless to integrate it as soon as some nice java library is available. ;)

Anyway: thanks for the effort & good luck
