Re: How to apply filter to a sheet in RPG. (HSSFR4, POI, Spreadsheet)

I add bits to Scott's prototypes when I need to. Those prototypes, though,
are not compatible with the most recent version of POI. Somewhere after
3.15, the POI project started converting integer codes to enums. So make
sure you are using POI 3.15 or earlier. You might be able to use 3.16 or
3.17 depending on what you need to do, but the newer you get, the more of
the integer codes you will have to convert to Enum classes.

Are you using Scott's service program, or are you using your own direct
method calls to POI?

Did Scott include the CT_ classes?

I was able to make Excel open a workbook with filters already applied, so
you should be able to to do what you are asking for using POI.

I just want to let you all know, that if you can do it in Excel, you can
probably do it in POI. If you can't do it in Excel, then there is

nothing

you can do about it. POI just writes the spreadsheet in Excel format.

So if

you can set up your filter in Excel, close the workbook, and reopen it,

and

the filters are still there, then you can look at the XML and determine
what to add, and you can likely do that with POI. Maybe not at the

higher

level XSSF classes, but definitely with the CT_ classes. Using the CT
classes, though, requires intimate knowledge of the EXCEL format.

Thanks Vern, that'd be great!

Hi John

At COMMON I give a couple presentations on using CGIDEV2 to create XLSX
spreadsheets, including the packaging.

There is also a lab, I have materials for setting it up on your system.

performance is good, creating the templates can take time, esp. when
someone wants things changed. Never happens, right? unless at Area 51!

I'll send it when I get to work.

Cheers
Vern
