I read somewhere that simple excel creation and formatting is possible if you use open dataset and create an xml file

it is a very complex approach and yet you will still not be able to put things such as the logo an column width

the main reason for not being able to do this is the fact that excel creation is normally done by using Object Linking and Embedding (OLE)

This works only by having the document open in the foreground and cannot work in the background
