Here’s the link in case you are really hardcore on this thing:
[url=“Apache POI - the Java API for Microsoft Documents”]http://jakarta.apache.org/poi/[/url]
and the official site is:
Jakarta POI - Java API To Access Microsoft Format Files
The POI project consists of APIs for manipulating various file formats based upon Microsoft’s OLE 2 Compound Document format using pure Java. In short, you can read and write MS Excel files using Java. Soon, you’ll be able to read and write Word files using Java. POI is your Java Excel solution as well as your Java Word solution. However, we have a complete API for porting other OLE 2 Compound Document formats and welcome others to participate.
So now you have your work cut out for you.
Cheers.
