This still doesn't answer Theo's question. Is there something "bad" about using a String as the argument and having the method handle the conversion to HSSFRichTextString internally? It doesn't seem to make sense to force this change on existing code unless there is either a gain or the avoidance of a potential problem.

Regards, Khanh -----Original Message----- From: Theo Antonopoulos [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, March 14, 2007 8:50 PM To: POI Users List Subject: HSSFRichText Hi people, Anyone else a bit annoyed about the deprecation of HSSFCell.setCellValue(String value) ? I just saw this because I was using POI alpha 1 release before changing to the POIRC1. Just I don't see the point of it. Or can someone please justify it?
