Any reason why you want to do it the hard way? Yes you could create your own Java action to accomplish this but it would be far easier to just use the modules. Those modules are used and tested so why would you not want to make use of those? Even from a security perspective it makes no sense at all to not use those.

Hi, 

If you just need a basic excel export you could always create a page with a datagrid with source xpath. In your datagrid place all the columns you want to export and a select/deselect all button (check the settings of these buttons for some extra configuration) and a default export to excel button.
