Hi there, I have been reading with interest the POI docs on processing Excel documents. In particular I am interested in text extraction for which I am currently using Aperture 1.6.0 which includes POI 3.8-beta5.
I would like to know how to fine tune the process because in addition to expected text (column titles, workbook names, etc.), it also extracts a lot of floating point numbers which bear no visible relation to the numbers in the cells. I can only think that perhaps they are dates (or similar) in an internal format? Anyway, for my application they are unwanted and need to be suppressed somehow. Could someone kindly point me in the right direction? Thanks, - Chris
