Not entirely sure if this will help you but I was just looking at this today:

http://www.xml.com/pub/a/2003/01/22/cocoon-excel.html

Its very well written and easy to follow.  I'm currently modifying it to 
use connection pools.

I guess you need the new ExcelGenerator not even committed to CVS:
http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=29817.

Filling the data using a transformer and serializing the result back to 
excel files should be easy.

Re: releashing resources in cocoon

Posted by padhu <pa...@yahoo.com>.
Hi

I am trying to read a xml file (amp.xml in the
following code), display it to the users and finally
replace (using java action class) the xml file with
the options that user has selected. I have problem in
accessing the file using the action java class, since
cocoon transformer holds that resources. Is there any
way to make the cocoon to forcefully release a
resource.

<map:match pattern="alternate-priority-selection">
<map:generate type="file" src="content/amp.xml"/>
<map:transform type="xslt" src="style/amp.xsl"/>
<map:serialize type="html"/>
</map:match>

<map:match pattern="submit_selection">
<map:act type="val-region">
<map:parameter name="app_title" value="{app_title}"/>
<map:act type="CreateXML">
</map:act>
<map:redirect-to
uri="cocoon:/alternate-priority-selection?app_title={request-param:app_title}&amp;region=houston&amp;run=yes"/>
</map:act>
</map:match>

Thanks!~
pad.
