Hi, currently dataDriven doesn't respect at all the cell formatting. One of the consequences is that dates are extracted as number because they are saved as number internally.
Sadly POI procures facilities to read the format, but not to format the cell value with this information (which depends not only on the format but on informations like the local settings as well). I've started to look at it and a new version will be available in the coming days (I will open an issue for that). The difficulty will be to cover all the format and therefore I think that I will first incorporate some simple conversion rules and that we'll have to add new ones later based on user feedback. Cheers, Marc. -- Blog: http://mguillem.wordpress.com Yoo-Jin Lee wrote: > Hi, > > The dataDriven step doesn't recognize date formatted excel cells.
