Hello,

I have an excel spreadsheet with dates in formats like 'M/D/yyyy' and
'Sunday, January 09, 2005'.  Dates in format 'M/D/yyyy' are interpreted
correctly as Date (HSSFDateUtil.isCellDateFormatted() returns true).  The
same method is unable to identify other date formats as Date and they end up
appearing as double.

Previous posts have alluded to using HSSFDateUtil.isADateFormat(int
formatIndex, java.lang.String formatString)) as a possible solution.  Is
this correct?  If yes, how does one obtain the value to the 'formatString'
of a cell?

Thank you.
