Here in the US we use Excel and VBA to price, document, and quote deals.
But our parent company in Switzerland is totally into Java. And they would
like the entire world to use the same applications. But pricing is
completely different in the US, so we are partially protected. But to keep
our programs, and to make them happy, we have to communicate. So what is
the best way for a spreadsheet to get and send data to Java? They said
something about pointers is the way they'd like to do it. I could see
sharing an ODBC database.

ODBC would be my choice. Both Excel and Java speak ODBC.
