Hi, I might be totally wrong, and please forgive me if I am, but it seems like you are not using the best solution to work with spreadsheets with Android. I recommend using Xamarin. I have used it numerous times to consume, manipulate and export .xlsx docs. There is a lot more support for that kind of stuff via Nuget packages. Unity is more focused on game creation than data and document management.
