Ian,
I have never used it, but I have heard that Spreadsheet::ParseExcel is
good at getting Excel file into a Perl script. If you every need to

Spreadsheet::WriteExcel. Both of these can be found on CPAN.

Spreadsheet::ParseExcel and Spreadsheet::WriteExcel? Both have ::Simple

fyi - this is off topic since it does not have anything to do with
mod_perl in particular. you should really ask on:
news://comp.lang.perl.modules
or one of the other newsgroups:
news://comp.lang.perl.moderated
news://comp.lang.perl.misc
or on this helpful website:

Two suggestions:
One: drop the excel idea right now or you'll find out its not the right
solution at a later time. Use LDAP instead. Then right a CGI (as you
really don't need Mod-Perl) for all kinds of queries and an admin view
for a maintainer to maintain it.
Two: ask your spreadsheet
