Hi Heitor,
I would have preferred to generate an ODS document, but i haven't found a good 
perl module to write an OpenDocument Spreadsheet file.
I've discarded the CSV option, because, for this project, i prefer a file 
format that let me create some rich text format (bold,header,color ecc).
I've found the module "Spreadsheet-WriteExcel" that's perfect for my needs, and 
the xls could be easly converted on every format you need.

Regards

Let me be an ass: why not an open format such as ODS or even CSV, which is more 
compatible with exploratory analysis tools?
