I am running into problems with references to external workbooks.

 

I am iterating through NameRecords to get information about what they
refer to.   So for each NameRecord I do:

 

Ptg[] nameDef = nameRecord.getNameDefinition();

Ref3DPtg ref3dPtg = (Ref3DPtg) nameDef[0];

hssfWorkbook.getSheetIndexFromExternSheetIndex(ref3dPtg.getExternSheetIn
dex()));

 

HssfWorkbook.getSheetIndexFromExternSheetIndex() bombs when the
reference is to an external workbook.

 

I'm fine with avoiding this error by ignoring these external refs, but
how do I know if they are refs to an external workbook?

 

It looks like maybe an InternalWorkbook can do it (getExternalSheet() ==
null) ... but before going that route ... is there a way to do it via
the HSSFWorkbook class?
