Hrishi,
You can use the beta version of ROoo for Open Office, also available
on the Download tab of rcom.univie.ac.at, to interface with the Open Office
spreadsheet.
RExcel itself uses Microsoft COM for behind-the-scenes communication
and is therefore limited to Microsoft Windows.
The gdata package reads xls files on Linux machines. It uses perl to
interpret the xls format.
gdata::read.xls Read Excel files
