Multiple blocks of data as print area

[Carsten Payenberg <ca...@googlemail.com>]

 Hi!

I know that I can set a print area as one block of data in a Sheet.
In Excel it is possible to set multiple blocks of data as print area(s)
(using the ctrl-key).

Is this also possible using POI HSSF?

I searched the FAQ and API but couldn't find it...

Many thanks!

Since no-one has answered saying how, I guess it isn't possible (I'm
certainly not aware of how to do it, but that doesn't always mean it isn't 
possible!)

Any chance you could upload three files to a new bug in bugzilla:
* a very simple file, one block selected
* the same file, except with two blocks selected
* the same file, except with three blocks selected

That way, we'll have everything we need to figure out how multiple print 
selections are done. Depending on just how the files differ in terms of 
records, it may or may not be an easy change to add support for that in 
poi. (If it isn't easy, it probably won't happen quickly)
