Subject: Modifying an Excel file with Ruby

Hi all,
I have an Excel XLS file that is full of pre-existing charts, formulas,
worksheets, etc.
I need to be able to open it up, fill in a hidden worksheet with some
values from a database, and save it out again without losing all the
charts/formulas/worksheets/etc. So
http://rubyforge.org/projects/spreadsheet/ is out of the question.
And i can't use win32::ole because i won't be hosting on a windows
server.

Does anyone have any ideas? I'm even considering shelling out to a perl
or python script, but i thought i'd look here first.

Thanks in advance,
Chris
