Hi,
I am not trying to learn poi, I need it urgently for work.
Someone please help. Here is the code in my servlet:
*
protected* *void* doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse
response) *throws* ServletException, IOException {
// *TODO* Auto-generated method stub
*try* {
response.setContentType("application/vnd.ms-excel" );
// String filename = (String)request.getAttribute("selected");
HttpSession session = request.getSession();
String *filename* = (String)session.getAttribute("selected");
String path = "test.xls";
response.setHeader("Content-disposition", "inline;filename="+path);
// HSSFWorkbook wb = new HSSFWorkbook();
InputStream inp = *new* FileInputStream(path);
//InputStream inp = new FileInputStream("workbook.xlsx");
Thanks in advance,
