--- Comment #1 from Mark B <ma...@tiscali.co.uk> ---
I am assuming that you are using an SAX parser and a content handler to read
the raw xml for the sheet but do need to be clear on this point so, may I ask
how you are going about trying to retrieve the cell's name?

If you take a look at the raw xml markup for a workbook, then the names are
usually stored in the workbook.xml file in an element called definedNames. This
 element have children - each called definedName - which identifies the cell or
cells the name refers to and specifies the name applied to that range of cells.
If you are using the SAX parser/handler approach to process the sheet's
contents, then I then you will also need to handle this extra wrinkle and parse
the workbook.xml file also.
