How to read numeric formatting?
Hello,
I was wondering if someone could help me.
I have cells displaying formula results with restricted decimal places
due to formatting on the cell, but actually containing numbers with more
decimal places. When I read this value using HSSFCell.getNumericValue,
it is returning the whole number, but I only want the rounded one.
Is there a way to get just what is displayed?
Alternatively, can I check what the cell format is set to so I can round
to the correct decimal places in the same way as in the worksheet? I
got the DataFormat from CellStyle, but don't know how to interpret it.
Thanks,
Natalie
