Excel can be used to build a more complex front-end for importable spreadsheets than is possible with just CSV.

The Excel importer currently will import a worksheet called 'SahanaData', or the first worksheet if none with the correct name exist.

Normally this is a hidden worksheet with a user-visible UI worksheet where data is entered & 1 or more lookup worksheets.
