Hi, HSSF supports outlining. Look at
http://jakarta.apache.org/poi/hssf/quick-guide.html#Outlining Is it what you need? What version of POI are you using? Try the latest POI 3.0 release candidate. This can be downloaded from: http://people.apache.org/~nick/POI-3.0-RC1/ Regards, Yegor RN> Hi, RN> I am working on an application for which I need to generate Excel RN> spreadsheets with outlining. I read in the Limitations section on the RN> HSSF website that this is not possible at the moment. I have found a RN> Perl module, SpreadSheet::WriteExcel (on CPAN), that does exactly what RN> I want. RN> Unfortunately (in this respect), I'm not using Perl for this project RN> but Java. It is easy enough for me to write a Perl script, pass the RN> data from Java to Perl through some IPC mechanism, and then pass the RN> resulting spreadsheet back. However, it would be much more satisfying RN> if I could do this all in Java with HSSF. RN> What are the issues with porting the outlining code from Perl as RN> regards licensing? If they are surmountable, I would definitely be RN> willing to spend some time doing it (with the guidance of the HSSF RN> developers).
