Hi Patrick.
I think it's not useless. It's just not an optimum efficiency
(traversing via column numbers instead of the iterator and ignoring null
cells). It's not invented by POI. All what they do is based on Microsoft
behaviour.

Betreff: RE: HSSFRow.cellIterator order

That's a bummer -- seems to make POI almost completely useless for
simple scanning of rows. Are there _any_ workarounds short of catching
AIOOBE? Seems like a pretty nasty problem
