ODBC may be more flexible, but i know squat about that, so I tried to figure out how I would approach the problem

I was thinking along the lines of parsing the output of calibredb list in VBScript and building the spreadsheet internally. I believe you can call calibredb with the ID of a single book as well to obtain necessary details.
