Jess rules are textual, like program code. Typically what you're going to store in a spreadsheet is a decision table, which some simple rule engines will execute directly. That isn't what Jess does. You could write a Jess program to *implement* a decision table runner, or you could try to store Jess rules as text in spreadsheet cells (although I have no idea why anyone would ever want to do that!)
