Take a look at this;
http://poi.apache.org/apidocs/org/apache/poi/xssf/usermodel/XSSFWorkbook.html#getAllEmbedds%28%29
because, as the tables are embedded, this is the most likely way to retrieve
a reference to them.

That method returns a List containing zero, one or more elements of type
org.apache.poi.openxml4j.opc.PackagePart which you can then process using
POI again - that is assuming they are all Excel workbooks. If you look at
the constructor for the XSSFWorkbook class, you will see that one takes a
reference to an OPCPackage object and it is possible to retrieve just such
an object from the PackagePart by calling it's - that is the PackagePart(s)
- getPackage() method.

Have never tried it myself but I think that will work.
