How to reorder pages within a PDF file via a key number residing within each page in the pdf file? The reorder will not be sequential, but rather based upon a list residing on an xls file.

If you just want to reorder the pages, you can use many tools - try IText first as its free - to do this. You will need some custom logic for running it all. It will take years to digest the PDF spec...

So you want to reorder pages within a PDF file based on a desired order of pages listed in an XLS file -- presumably you're looking to do this programmatically? If so, can you let us know more about your environment (operating system, programming language, etc) so that we can make a recommendation?
For this task you'll need a third party SDK unless you wish to spend a significant amount of time digesting the PDF specification so that you can do it all yourself.
We’re working in windows environment. Programming language will VBA (Microsoft’s Visual Basic for Applications).
