Hi all, 

I just started using POI, and it's not clear for me, why the method getCellType() does't return the actual cell style of the given cell, and "returns a reference to a cell style contained in the workbook object". This means that i can't find a preseted cell type of a cell, and the only way is to keep references in my code to every cell style i have in my workbook?

Can anyone help me? Thanks

Because that is what it is like in the file.  Cell Style is a member of 
the workbook.  A cell style can be assigned to multiple cells.  Further 
more, you can, and
excel can, create 2 styles that are exactly alike but assigned to 
different cells.  Then change one style and all cells assigned that 
style suddenly look different.
