Use the POI libraries from Jakarta ( specifically the HSSF library ).

Hi,

I saw an example while searching in google about importing jxl.*. Could you direct me how I can import this package as java does not have it. I heard that jxl is much easier that POI although I am not new to both of them.

Thanks,

Priya

I've used both jxl and POI, there are very similar in their use and functionality.

You need to download the jxl libraries, put them in your classpath and then away you go.
