JExcelAPI

With a interest to read an excel file from a java program I came to know about JExcelApi. So I downloaded JExcelApiV2_6_6.Actually its a tar file then I extracted it.It contains the tutorial, demo pros. Since I was new to this I just went through the tutorial and got knowledge about the JExcelApi. The first step to read a spread sheet is to create a workbook. Once created this workbook one can access the individual sheets through this workbook.These are zero indexed and the first sheet will be 0 and the second will be 1 and so on.then the spread sheet can be read and can also write. The formats in the Excel can be modified through the APIs available. Now I am dealing with the Demo programs. And will see some more details tomorrow.
