Chamara,
"java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError" means that it can't find a Java class.
In particular, it can't find the class named
org/apache/poi/hssf/util/CellReference.
As to WHY it can't find that class, I don't know.
You say you have the JAR files installed, so it should be able to find
them. Do the JAR files work for other purposes, or is this the first
time you've used them? Is it possible that they're corrupt? If you
transferred them from a PC, make sure you used FTP in BINARY mode (or a
similar binary-safe method of transporting them). Make sure the copies
you downloaded are valid. (I'm referring to the POI jar files.. it
sounds like the xlparse.jar file is okay.)
Having them in /QIBM/userdata/java400/ext should work! Though, it's not
a very good practice. This isn't related to the problem you're
experiencing, but I do recommend that you use a CLASSPATH instead of
/QIBM/userdata/java400/ext. The way you're doing it, you can only have
one version of the JAR files on your system at a time, which makes it
hard to test new versions, and if you ever have two apps that require
different versions of the JAR files, you'll be out of luck if you use
/QIBM/userdata/java400/ext. Using CLASSPATH solves both problems, since
each job can specify a different CLASSPATH.

change the Java method, so that the returntype and parameter types

I have stored all .JAR files in /QIBM/userdata/java400/ext. Any one
have an idea about this.
