Reading and Writing from Excel using Unix scripting

Hi All,

I want to read and write into Excel files.

I want my script to generate the required output directly in the Excel format.

Is it possible through unix scripting or shall I have to use some other language for this purpose?

Waiting for your suggestion.

Thanks in Advance.

AshishK
