--- Comment #1 from Nick Burch <ap...@gagravarr.org> ---
Both Excel's .xls and .xlsx use doubles to store numbers, and formatting rules
to specify how numbers should be shown to the user. If you want POI to give you
a string of "what Excel shows for a cell", you need to use DataFormatter

If you look at org.apache.poi.xssf.eventusermodel.XLSX2CSV you'll see an
example of doing this.
