Let's say I have 100000 records to be exported,
Now in one sheet of a workbook it can contain only 65535 records,
Then the other set of 34465 records should get created in another sheet
of the same workbook.

Is it possible in Yegor's BigGridDemo? Using the xml approach?

Yes, it is possible. The BigGridDemo application streams the generated data into a temporary file and then injects it in the target OOXML package. This approach allows generating really large sets of data, up to the grid limits.
Splitting the data across multiple sheets is possible, actually it requires 
only a few lines of code to add.

Yegor

Thanks,
Santosh

I do not remember saying that Yegor's BigGridDemo demonstrated the ONLY
way
to proceed with larger data-sets merely that it demonstrated a possible
approach if you working with the OpenXML based file format.

Having said that, can I just be a little more clear about what you are
asking please? Are you saying that you have sufficient data to populate
more
than sixty five thousand rows and that rather than see this data
converted
into a single Excel worksheet, you want to see it split across several
worksheets? If so, how should the data be split or divided; what
criteria
should determine which sheet each row is written to?

I am using POI V3.5, and was creating binary .xls files.

Now that I understand large export are possible only using xml based
.xlsx files approach, thanks for you help.

I have another question, for an export more than 65,535 records, how
to
instruct xml to open up in a separate sheet instead of not showing the
rest of the records?

Thanks,
Santosh

May I ask which version of the Excel file format you are targetting?
Are
you
trying to create binary .xls files or xml based .xlsx files? If the
latter
then you could take a look at the

http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/poi/trunk/src/examples/src/org/apache/po
i/xssf/usermodel/examples/BigGridDemo.java
proof that Yegor created. It is only intended to demonstrate a
technique
and
must not be thought of as a complete application however.

If, however, you are targetting the binary file format then I am
afraid
that
the news is not too good. Owing to the file format - it consists of a
series
of linked lists - it is not possible to write the file out in chunks.

Hi everyone,

For large excel exports, I get out of memory error. Is there any way
to
write directly to physical file record by record instead of using
heap
and then writing the whole data to file system at the end?

Because increasing heap size is not working even if I use 1024 MB. As
in
our application we have large and number of export to excel.

Thanks,

Santosh
