setting the Locale of HSSFWorkbook

hello,

is it possible to change the default locale setting of a HSSFWorkbook? It seems that default setting always is the American Locale.
My problem:
I write a new HSSFWorkbook, set the CellType of some cells to HSSFCell.CELL_TYPE_NUMERIC and fill in some double values.
I open this workbook in Excel and format the Number Cells as Currency with the Currency-Button from the Formatting Toolbar: The Currency symbol is always $ and not the currency symbol corresponding to my windows system language setting.

thanks in advance
Bernhard
