    To use this, you'll need the PHP PEAR Library.
    You'll also need Google Translator. ;D

    Both of those are in German, so you can use Google to translate them.

    Can you simply generate an ASCII or text file containing the report?  Excel can open/import such files.

    I would follow Soybean.  Unless you need to include fancy Excel stuff (formatting, formulae, etc) just create a text-based CSV file.
