- low level structures for those with special needs
- an eventmodel api for efficient read-only access
- a full usermodel api for creating, reading and modifying XLS files
The memory footprint for HSSF supported (.xls) binary files is lower than the new XSSF supported Excel 2007 OOXML (.xlsx) files that are XML based. But there are limitations as well, such as number of Rows and columns are limited to 65,536 and 256 respectively.
Tip: If you see the error Invalid column index (256). Allowable column range for BIFF8 is (0..255) or ('A'..'IV') then you must use the XSSF implementation.
