o underlying query becomes inner SELECT statement
o the user‘s column selection become the outer SELECT statement,
preserving
column ordering
o filters and searches are parsed into a WHERE clause
2. Set column labels using a hash table with the corresponding
column
names.
3. Build Excel XML and return it as a BLOB
