POI-HSSF classes

I've been tasked with a project that starts with reading data from an Excel file. The file is very complex, includes a Pivot table, and quite a number of multiple sheets. The accountant creates it with a lot of macros. I've not programmed with Excel files yet, or even Java, except to create comma-delimited files.

Do the POI-HSSF classes in our Java handle things like the Pivot table, or will I need to implement them separately? I've downloaded Scott Klement's RPG source and I'm reading up on his excellent articles on the subject, but it will take a bit to get that far.
