Or Excel 2007 - XLSX if you want to use the Office Compatability Pack that can be installed to take the xls files and turn them into xlsx files. You can download this program at

As for minimum supported Excel version (which I understand as "what is the oldest version of Excel that should be able to open the generated Excel files"), you should be able to open the files using Excel 97.  

But that is something which I've never tried myself (I don't have 97 anymore :-)).
Any newer version of Excel will also open the files.
