I've got an table in excel with formulae I would like to add data to.
My motivation for this is the fact that tables in excel can dynamically expand to the range of data you add to them, meaning that the formula rows automatically keep up with the amount of data rows.
I'm however having a hard time finding out if this is possible using apache-POI.
One thing I was going to try (see code below) was to expand the AreaReference of the table to cover the data, however both AreaReference(CR,CR2); (as used in this example) and AreaReference(CR,CR2, SpreadsheetVersion.EXCEL2007) (seen in the apache docs) give "constructor is undefined".
No idea what is causing that constructor error as I do have org.apache.poi.ss.util imported.
The other option on the apache docs AreaReference(java.lang.String reference) lets me compile and run but instead gives a "NoSuchMethod" error.
List<XSSFTable> tableList = spreadSheet.getTables();
CellReference CR = new CellReference(0, 0);
CellReference CR2 = new CellReference(5, 2);
AreaReference my_data_range = new AreaReference(CR,CR2);
tableList.get(0).setArea(my_data_range);
Any help will be appreciated.
The main problem using apache poi until now is that it is not ready to be used without having detailed knowledge about Microsoft Office as such and about the storage of Microsoft Office files. There are many things only half way ready and there are regressions often in new versions (bugs occur again which were solved already).
So your requirement: "Expanding an existing table in Excel using Apache POI" is not possible only simply using apache poi. One must know that Office Open XML files *.xlsx are simply ZIP archives which can be unzipped. And after unzipping we find /xl/tables/table1.xml for storage of the table. This XML we can analyzing and comparing it with XML which was created using Excel's GUI. So we can find problems which results from shortcomings of apache poi. Same is with the sheet's XML in /xl/tables/sheet1.xml.
Also we need to know that apache poi builds on the low level classes of ooxml-schemas. Partially we need using those classes because of the halfway readiness of apache poi. In the following example we need ooxml-schemas-1.4.jar additionally because apache poi's poi-ooxml-schemas-4.0.0.jar has not included org.openxmlformats.schemas.spreadsheetml.x2006.main.CTTableFormula until now. Unfortunately there is no documentation about ooxml-schemas public available. So we need downloading the sources and doing javadoc our own.
The following example works for me using apache poi 4.0.0. If you get problems while compiling or running, the reason might be that multiple different versions of apache poi jars are in class path while compile time and/or run time. Do not mix different apache poi versions. Also, as said already, my code needs the full jar of all of the schemas ooxml-schemas-1.4.jar.

According to FAQ, this code needs poi-ooxml-full-5.2.2.jar instead of ooxml-schemas-1.4.jar now for run using apache poi 5.2.2.
Some bugs are fixed. But there is one new bug when using XSSFCell.setCellFormula when formula contains table references. But XSSFWorkbook.setCellFormulaValidation(false) avoids this.

I have a table in the docx template.
Depending on the number of objects, I have to duplicate the table as many times as I have objects. Duplicate tables must be after the table from the template.
I have several tables in the template that should behave like this.
XmlCursor take the place of the first table from the template and put the next one there. I want to insert the next table after the previous one, which I added myself, but xmlcursor does not return the table item I added, but returns "STARTDOC"
XmlCursor cursor = docx.getTables().get(pointer).getCTTbl().newCursor();
cursor.toEndToken();
while (cursor.toNextToken() != XmlCursor.TokenType.START) ;
XWPFParagraph newParagraph = docx.insertNewParagraph(cursor);
newParagraph.createRun().setText("", 0);
cursor.toParent();
cursor.toEndToken();
while (cursor.toNextToken() != XmlCursor.TokenType.START) ;
docx.insertNewTbl(cursor);
CTTbl ctTbl = CTTbl.Factory.newInstance();
ctTbl.set(docx.getTables().get(numberTableFromTemplate).getCTTbl());
XWPFTable tableCopy = new XWPFTable(ctTbl, docx);
docx.setTable(index + 1, tableCopy);
Not clear what you are aiming for with the cursor.toParent();. And I also cannot reproduce the issue having only your small code snippet. But having a complete working example may possible help you.
Assuming we have following template:
Then following code:
import java.io.FileOutputStream;
import java.io.FileInputStream;
import org.apache.poi.xwpf.usermodel.*;
import org.apache.xmlbeans.XmlObject;
import org.apache.xmlbeans.XmlCursor;
import org.openxmlformats.schemas.wordprocessingml.x2006.main.CTTbl;
public class WordCopyTableAfterTable {
static XmlCursor setCursorToNextStartToken(XmlObject object) {
XmlCursor cursor = object.newCursor();
cursor.toEndToken(); //Now we are at end of the XmlObject.
//There always must be a next start token.
while(cursor.hasNextToken() && cursor.toNextToken() != org.apache.xmlbeans.XmlCursor.TokenType.START);
//Now we are at the next start token and can insert new things here.
return cursor;
}
static void removeCellValues(XWPFTableCell cell) {
for (XWPFParagraph paragraph : cell.getParagraphs()) {
for (int i = paragraph.getRuns().size()-1; i >= 0; i--) {
paragraph.removeRun(i);
}
}
}
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
//The data. Each row a new table.
String[][] data= new String[][] {
new String[] {"John Doe", "5/23/2019", "1234.56"},

new String[] {"Marie Template", "9/20/2019", "4.56"},
new String[] {"Hans Template", "10/2/2019", "4567.89"}
};
String value;
XWPFDocument document = new XWPFDocument(new FileInputStream("WordTemplate.docx"));
XWPFTable tableTemplate;
CTTbl cTTblTemplate;
XWPFTable tableCopy;
XWPFTable table;
XWPFTableRow row;
XWPFTableCell cell;
XmlCursor cursor;
XWPFParagraph paragraph;
XWPFRun run;
//get first table (the template)
tableTemplate = document.getTableArray(0);
cTTblTemplate = tableTemplate.getCTTbl();
cursor = setCursorToNextStartToken(cTTblTemplate);
//fill in first data in first table (the template)
for (int c = 0; c < data[0].length; c++) {
value = data[0][c];
row = tableTemplate.getRow(1);
cell = row.getCell(c);
removeCellValues(cell);
cell.setText(value);
}
paragraph = document.insertNewParagraph(cursor); //insert new empty paragraph
cursor = setCursorToNextStartToken(paragraph.getCTP());
//fill in next data, each data row in one table
for (int t = 1; t < data.length; t++) {
table = document.insertNewTbl(cursor); //insert new empty table at position t
cursor = setCursorToNextStartToken(table.getCTTbl());
tableCopy = new XWPFTable((CTTbl)cTTblTemplate.copy(), document); //copy the template table
//fill in data in tableCopy
for (int c = 0; c < data[t].length; c++) {
value = data[t][c];
row = tableCopy.getRow(1);
cell = row.getCell(c);
removeCellValues(cell);
cell.setText(value);
}
document.setTable(t, tableCopy); //set tableCopy at position t instead of table
paragraph = document.insertNewParagraph(cursor); //insert new empty paragraph
cursor = setCursorToNextStartToken(paragraph.getCTP());
}
paragraph = document.insertNewParagraph(cursor);
run = paragraph.createRun();
run.setText("Inserted new text below last table.");
cursor = setCursorToNextStartToken(paragraph.getCTP());
FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream("WordResult.docx");
document.write(out);
out.close();
document.close();
}
}
leads to following result:
Is that about what you wanted to achieve?
Please note how I insert the additional tables.
Using table = document.insertNewTbl(cursor); a new empty table is inserted at position t. This table is placed into the document body. So this table must be taken for adjusting the cursor.
Then tableCopy = new XWPFTable((CTTbl)cTTblTemplate.copy(), document); copys the template table. Then this copy is filled with data. And then it is set into the document at position t using document.setTable(t, tableCopy);.
Unfortunately apache poi is incomplete here. XWPFDocument.setTable only sets the internally ArrayLists but not the underlying XML. XWPFDocument.insertNewTbl sets the underlying XML but only using an empty table. So we must do it that ugly complicated way.
Have small problem when I want to set formula to cell by column name format. Let me show example:
In excel file I can do something like this =[Name]
So value from colmn B is copied to column A
But when I try to do something like this in Apache POI
cell.setCellFormula("[Name]");
I get exception:
Parse error near char 0 '[' in specified formula '[Name]'. Expected number, string, defined name, or data table"
How can I handle such situation?
The formula =[Name] is a structured reference to an Excel table. But it is a very short unqualified form. The fully qualified form would be =tableName[[#This Row],[Name]], And that fully qualified form also will be stored and so must be set using apache poi.
Let's have a complete example:
import java.io.FileOutputStream;
import org.apache.poi.xssf.usermodel.*;
import org.apache.poi.ss.util.AreaReference;
import org.apache.poi.ss.util.CellReference;
class CreateExcelTableUsingStructuredReferences {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
try (XSSFWorkbook workbook = new XSSFWorkbook();
FileOutputStream fileout = new FileOutputStream("./Excel.xlsx") ) {
//data
String[] tableHeadings = new String[]{"Id", "Name", "Description"};
String[] tableContent = new String[]{null, "Name1", "Description1"};
//variables
String tableName = "Table1";
int firstRow = 0; //start table in row 1
int firstCol = 0; //start table in column A
int rows = 2; //we have to populate headings row and 1 data row
int cols = 3; //three columns in each row
//prepairing the sheet
XSSFSheet sheet = workbook.createSheet();
//set sheet content
for (int r = 0; r < rows; r++) {
XSSFRow row = sheet.createRow(firstRow+r);
for (int c = 0; c < cols; c++) {
XSSFCell localXSSFCell = row.createCell(firstCol+c);
if (r == 0) {
localXSSFCell.setCellValue(tableHeadings[c]);
} else {
localXSSFCell.setCellValue(tableContent[c]);
}
}
}
//create the table
CellReference topLeft = new CellReference(sheet.getRow(firstRow).getCell(firstCol));
CellReference bottomRight = new CellReference(sheet.getRow(firstRow+rows-1).getCell(firstCol+cols-1));
AreaReference tableArea = workbook.getCreationHelper().createAreaReference(topLeft, bottomRight);
XSSFTable dataTable = sheet.createTable(tableArea);
dataTable.setName(tableName);
dataTable.setDisplayName(tableName);
//set table column formula
dataTable.getCTTable().getTableColumns().getTableColumnList().get(0).addNewCalculatedColumnFormula().setStringValue(
tableName + "[[#This Row],[Name]]");
//set the formula in sheet
XSSFCell formulaCell = sheet.getRow(firstRow+1).getCell(firstCol);
formulaCell.setCellFormula(tableName + "[[#This Row],[Name]]");
//following is not necessary up to apache poi 5.1.0, but later versions of apache poi uses formula parser which damages structured table formulas
formulaCell.getCTCell().getF().setStringValue(tableName + "[[#This Row],[Name]]");
workbook.write(fileout);
}
}
}
This works using apache poi 4 or later.
Note, the additional formulaCell.getCTCell().getF().setStringValue(tableName + "[[#This Row],[Name]]"); is only needed using apache poi versions after 5.1.0. Later versions of apache poi uses a formula parser which damages the structured table formula and so it must be reset using this code line.
I am using the apache poi for reading and writing values to excel file with java. I have below excel file, from that file i need to fetch data which comes under my required criteria.
Application
CaseID
FeeType
Comments
AppA
1234
Security
Add Comments
AppB
1235
Other
Case created
AppA
1236

In my code I want to get all the cases which comes under below criteria,
Application set to "AppA",Fee Type set to "Security" and Comments with "Add Comments".
I used below code to filter using two columns for search criteria, but i cannot add the third criteria. Please help me.
ArrayList<Object> ApplicationCases = new ArrayList<Object>();
for (Row row : sheetName) {
for (Cell cell : row) {
if (cell.getCellType() == CellType.STRING) {
if (cell.getRichStringCellValue().getString().trim().equals(requiredCellContent1)) {
int rowNumber = row.getRowNum();
XSSFRow row1 = sheetName.getRow(rowNumber);
XSSFCell selectedCellValue = null;
short cellcount = row1.getLastCellNum();
for (int i = 0; i < cellcount; i++) {
if (row1.getCell(i).getRichStringCellValue().getString().trim()
.equals(requiredCellContent2)) {
selectedCellValue = row1.getCell(1);
ApplicationCases.add(selectedCellValue);
} else if (selectedCellValue == null || row1.getCell(i).getCellType() == CellType.BLANK) {
}
}
}
}
Can you so something like below
Iterator<Row> rows = sheet.rowIterator();
while(rows.hasNext()) {
Row row = rows.next();
String app = row.getCell(0).getRichStringCellValue().getString();
String feeType = row.getCell(2).getRichStringCellValue().getString();
String comment = row.getCell(3).getRichStringCellValue().getString();
if(app.equals("AppA") && feeType.equals("Security") && comment.equals("Add Comments")) {
//Here is your condition satisfied
}
}
I have a worksheet with data in it, I am trying to create a pivot table with report filter. I want to set default value to the report filter.
pivotTable.addReportFilter(13);
column contains 0's and 1's, I would like to set 0 as my default value in the report filter.
At first this question is not answerable in that general context as it is asked now. Creating pivot tables using apache poi is in beta state until now. So we need not only the high level apache poi API but also the underlying low level objects. And we need exactly to know which kind of data shall be in the pivot table. To be general able creating pivot tables from all kind of data, as Excel can do, there is much more effort necessary. Microsoft has programmed this in decades with big teams of programmers. From this apache poi is far away.
Until now apache poi adds as much pivot field items of type "default" (<item t="default"/>) as rows are present in the data range, if the pivot fields where used as axis fields.
This is because they don't want to have a look at the data, and so they are assuming as much different values as rows where in the data.
This is fine because Excel will rebuild its pivot cache while opening. But if we want preselect items, then this is not fine. Then we must know what items there are that can be preselected.
So we need at least as much items, as we want preselecting, as numbered items: <item x="0"/><item x="1"/><item x="2"/>...
And we need to build a cache definition which has shared elements for those items.
Example:
import org.apache.poi.xssf.usermodel.*;
import org.apache.poi.ss.usermodel.*;
import org.apache.poi.ss.util.*;
import java.util.Random;
import java.io.*;
class PivotTableTest4 {

cell.setCellValue("Value2");
cell = row.createCell(3);
cell.setCellValue("City");
for (int r = 1; r < 15; r++) {
row = sheet.createRow(r);
cell = row.createCell(0);
cell.setCellValue("Name " + ((r-1) % 4 + 1));
cell = row.createCell(1);
cell.setCellValue(r * new java.util.Random().nextDouble());
cell = row.createCell(2);
cell.setCellValue(r * new java.util.Random().nextDouble());
cell = row.createCell(3);
cell.setCellValue("City " + ((r-1) % 3 + 1));
}
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
try {
XSSFWorkbook wb = new XSSFWorkbook();
XSSFSheet sheet = wb.createSheet();
//Create some data to build the pivot table on
setCellData(sheet);
XSSFPivotTable pivotTable = sheet.createPivotTable(
new AreaReference(new CellReference("A1"), new CellReference("D15")), new CellReference("H5"));
//Configure the pivot table
//Use first column as row label
pivotTable.addRowLabel(0);
//Sum up the second column
pivotTable.addColumnLabel(DataConsolidateFunction.SUM, 1);
//Avarage the third column
pivotTable.addColumnLabel(DataConsolidateFunction.AVERAGE, 2);
//Add fourth column as page filter
pivotTable.addReportFilter(3);
/*
Apache poi adds 15 pivot field items of type "default" (<item t="default"/>) here.
This is because there are 15 rows (A1:D15) and, because they don't have a look at the data,
they are assuming max 15 different values. This is fine because Excel will rebuild its pivot cache while opening.
But if we want preselect items, then this is not fine. Then we must know what items there are that can be preselected.
So we need at least as much items as we want preselecting as numbered items: <item x="0"/><item x="1"/><item x="2"/>...
And we must build a cache definition which has shared elements for those items.

for (int i = 0; i < 3; i++) {
//take the first 3 items as numbered items: <item x="0"/><item x="1"/><item x="2"/>

pivotTable.getCTPivotTableDefinition().getPivotFields().getPivotFieldArray(3).getItems().getItemArray(i).setX((long)i);
//build a cache definition which has shared elements for those items
//<sharedItems><s v="City 1"/><s v="City 2"/><s v="City 3"/></sharedItems>
pivotTable.getPivotCacheDefinition().getCTPivotCacheDefinition().getCacheFields().getCacheFieldArray(3).getSharedItems().addNewS().setV("City " + (i+1));
}
//Now we can predefinite a page filter. Second item, which is "City 2", in this case.
pivotTable.getCTPivotTableDefinition().getPageFields().getPageFieldArray(0).setItem(1);
FileOutputStream fileOut = new FileOutputStream("PivotTableTest4.xlsx");
wb.write(fileOut);
fileOut.close();
wb.close();
} catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
e.printStackTrace();

This needs the full jar of all of the schemas, ooxml-schemas-1.3.jar, as mentioned in the FAQ.
As title, I have a little trouble here.
I can get font from cell
HSSFFont font =
cell.getRow().getSheet().getWorkbook().
getFontAt(cell.getCellStyle().getFontIndex());
But now I need to get range name of it. Actually I need something to anchor and determine key cell and its own value cell.
Is there some method to get range name such as workBook.getName() or .getNameAt() but how to get name index from HSSFCell?
Apart from rich text strings, a cell has only one font assigned,
but it may be referenced by more than one named range.
So you'll need to iterate through the named ranges of the workbook and check if the cell is referenced. For the sake of simplicity, I have iterated over all area.getAllReferencedCells() - in case of big ranges you'll need to check if the area isContiguous() and if your cell/row-index is inside the cell/row-index of getFirstCell() and getLastCell() bounding box.
For more info check the Busy Developers' Guide to HSSF and XSSF Features.
Or search on stackoverflow ...
