Xcelsius Integration with Salesforce.com
Has anyone attempted a mash-up of Xcelsius and Salesforce.com via XML mapping and Excel? If so, help is needed. If not, what's the easiest way to generate an XML file of data from the Salesforce.com web service that can be mapped to an Excel spreadsheet.
Thanks in advance.
Not sure of the details of your business requirement.

In Winter '07 we're going to let you do more with Web Controls (or S-Controls) than ever before - and one of the places you can now use them is directly inside Salesforce dashboards. Winter '07 will allow users to take a component developed in their company, or from the AppExchange, and place it on their dashboard.
As well as allowing developers to use all the power of the AppExchange API - from JavaScript or Java, it also allows other technologies such as Flash to be used, as well as vendors like Business Objects to embed their Crystal Xcelcius product.
This was demonstrated at the London City Tour today and Business Objects presented the application. The full "thunder" of the announcement is being saved until Dreamforce.
If you are doing this now, I'd wait a couple of months and it'll be easier I would imaging.
Cheers
Gareth.
