Default excel file format

The older versions used the BIFF format if you search for it you can
find some VB(A) examples to read and write these files without using
Excel.
The drawback is it's version 3.0, and a lot of formatting is not
documented or possible.
It's a nice way out if someone has to create an excel file with data on
a machine without Excel.
