http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=12165 Need a way to get a formatted string for a numeric field when reading a file. Summary: Need a way to get a formatted string for a numeric field when reading a file. Product: POI Version: unspecified Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Blocker Priority: Other Component: HSSF AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I am using jakarta-poi-1.7.0-dev-bin.zip, and HSSFCell method getStringCellValue throws a NumberFormatException if a cell is numeric. However, there are custom formats one may specify on a numeric field. For example, a phone number would be displayed in a certain way, and not as a double 1.11111111E8. I have to generate a report from an xls file, and need a way to format numeric fields. Please advise on a way to do this.
