Can anyone confirm this? It's getting close to crunch time, and my
decision on how to proceed will depend on whether it's possible to add
this feature.

Thanks,
Scott

Subject: Re: Colored sheet tabs


Scott, I could be wrong but I do not think that it is possible to set
the
colours of the tabs. Originally, HSSF targeted a releatively early
version
of the BIFF8 file format in order to ensure compatibility; tab colouring
was
added by Microsoft later as far as I am aware. It could be worth asking
the
developers to add it as an enhancement - though it may not be possible
if I
am correct about the version constraint - or you could try to add this
feature as a patch to HSSF yourself.

Either way, I would wait for a reply from someone such as Nick, David,
Yegor, Josh, et al before accepting my reply as definitive.
