Hi Marco. If you download OOo and install it you've several sample code. From this you can start and add further things. For such things you've to search a lot in an avalanche of documentation in the internet. The programming at low level is similar to COM programming in C++ (although it's called UNO there and more platform independent i.e. not just Windows platforms). After a few weeks of big effort you might already have a basis on higher level which you can use to easily perform a lot of work.
For detail help use the sc-dev list ([EMAIL PROTECTED]). They're focussed on the Excel pendant (spreadsheet) which can read Excel files. It also can read from and write to Excel. The reactions are quite good if you don't always ask absolutely simple questions.
