Depending on the complexity of the sheets, I would probably export the
sheet to a tab delimited file, do the edits with a perl script, then import
the new tab delimited file.
The NeXS spreadsheet would permit you to do this directly with a perl
script, or you could do it via a tcp socket.

A fake fortuneteller can be tolerated. But an authentic soothsayer should
be shot on sight. Cassandra did not get half the kicking around she deserved.
