Thought you may be interested to read about SQL*XL. SQL*XL is an addin for Excel that specialises in getting data into Excel hassle free. You can use it perfectly for reporting and it can be setup with relative easy to make it run batches.

For a start SQL*XL can execute multiple select statements at a time and you can specify with each statement where the data should go on the spreadsheet. Furthermore, SQL*XL supports macro recording and you can program the commands yourself. The API is specified in the help file along with some examples.

When you write your Java app to open a spreadsheet it can use the SQL*XL addin as well.

Have a look at SQL*XL at www.oraxcel.com

Hope this helps,
