This document discusses using the Groovy programming language to transform XML data into an Excel spreadsheet. It provides an overview of Groovy and how it can be used to easily parse and process XML. It then demonstrates using Groovy with the Apache POI library to generate an Excel file from the XML data. The document shows sample Groovy code for parsing the XML, extracting the necessary data, and writing rows and cells to create the Excel spreadsheet. It concludes by noting that while more code was needed for the full requirements, Groovy allowed efficiently processing the XML and generating the Excel output.
