Often it is useful for XML data to be presented as a spreadsheet.
Tutorial Details:
A typical spreadsheet (for example, a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet) consists of cells represented in a grid of rows and columns, containing textual data, numeric data, or formulas. An Excel spreadsheet defines some standard functions such as SUM and AVERAGE that you can specify in cells.
The Apache Jakarta POI project provides the HSSF API to create an Excel spreadsheet from an XML document or to go the opposite way, parsing an Excel spreadsheet and converting to XML. The HSSF API has provisions for setting the layout, border settings, and fonts of an Excel document. In this article, you'll learn how to generate an example Excel spreadsheet by parsing an XML document and adding data from the XML document to a spreadsheet. Subsequently, you'll convert the Excel spreadsheet to an XML document.
