The method we'd have to do is to go through every cell in the workbook finding the ones with that value. This isn't a very efficient thing to do. Doing it with the high level API isn't really slower for this. So the short answer: no, iterate through them until you find it.

I am working with a pre-existing excel file. I need to find a header for a
column (ex. "Receiving"). The problem is that the header may not be on the
first row of the excel file. I won't know the row number or the column
number. Is there a way to search for a string value using poi that will
return to me the row and column of the string value?
Kindly,
Peter
