 csv2odf is useful for creating reports from databases and other data sources that produce csv files. csv2odf can be combined with [cron](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cron) and [shell scripts](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shell_script) to automatically generate business reports. 

-The csv data is merged with a template file to produce the output file. The template is a standard [open document file](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenDocument) as produced by [OpenOffice.org](http://www.openoffice.org/) or ooxml formats as produced by Office programs.
