Hi,
the only thing I think about is that you may have one or two blank rows (=no
record) before the 18th, and one or two rows after the 18th with empty data
so they doen't display in Excel.
Hope I'm clear...
Try :
for (int i = firstRowNum; i <= lastRowNum; i++) {
row = sheet.getRow(i);
System.out.println("Row " + i);
}
Maybe you'll find there is a missing number in the 0-17 range, and a row at
index 19.
Good luck,
Pierre
