Does anyone know of a Java API for the open document format used in Open
Office, KOffice, and elsewhere?
I'd like to be able to grab a cell or chart out of a .ods file.

There's an open source program written in Java that converts ODS files
to XHTML. Perhaps you can find modules within it which will do what you
want:
