In Apache Tomcat we have a servlet that does something like this:

public class MyExcelServlet extends HttpServlet {
public void doGet (HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException {
try {
        response.setContentType("application/vnd.ms-excel" );
        response.setHeader("Content-disposition", "inline;filename="+filename);
        HSSFWorkbook wb = new HSSFWorkbook();
        // create your workbook using Apache POI
        wb.write(response.getOutputStream());
} catch (Exception e) {
}
}
}

That is the bit you are going to have to code up yourself

The purpose of POI is to give you the low-level functions to which to operate with an EXCEL file.

Hi,

It looks like all the examples on the page here:

http://poi.apache.org/spreadsheet/examples.html

are examples that produce an excel file.  I need an example
that opens the file as a swing application.or in the browser,
Is there such an example?
