Hi all, I need to use POI to read an xls/xlsx Excel file containing texts entered by (not-very-smart) users.
When I type "VERO" in a Generic type cell of an italian Excel spreadsheet it will be converted in a Boolean TRUE value and so if I read the value as string using POI I get "TRUE". How can I get the original text typed before type conversion? I need to prevent similar cases in other languages, too (typing "VRAI" in french, for example). Thank you, David. -- View this message in context: http://apache-poi.1045710.n5.nabble.com/Reading-original-text-before-Boolean-conversion-tp5720296.html Sent from the POI - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
