Well, since I'm getting the data, I can put them in anything I like,
more or less. I just think I remember seeing the XML, that's why I
mentioned it...

I don't know :) Actually, anything that gets the job done.
If I remember correctly that blog post, author was not mentioning a
separate application, nor modifying the .ods source. But I really do not
remember at this time, that's why I'm asking for a suggestion.
The reason I can't use CSV is because the report is funky-formated -
parts of it can be CVSed, but most of the document can not.
