I get the following error when compiling a java program I'm trying to

HSSFColor color = HSSFColor.getIndexHash().get(colorIndex);

int colorIndex = font.getColor();
HSSFColor color = HSSFColor.getIndexHash().get(colorIndex);

Peter, just a guess, but it looks like getIndexHash is defined to have an java.lang.Integer as the key, not an integer. You could try defining colorIndex like this:

Integer colorIndex = new Integer(font.getColor());
