I am using Apache POI java and want to get the total number of rows which are not empty. I successfully processed a whole row with all its columns. Now I am assuming that I get an excel sheet with multiple rows and not a single row...so how to go about that? I was thinking of getting total number of rows (int n) and then loop until i<=n but not sure.
Suggestions are most welcome :)
Note: Apache POI version is 3.8. I am not dealing with Xlsx format...only xls.
Yes I tried this code but got 20 in return....which is not possible given I have only 5 rows
FileInputStream fileInputStream = new FileInputStream("COD.xls");
HSSFWorkbook workbook = new HSSFWorkbook(fileInputStream);
HSSFSheet worksheet = workbook.getSheet("COD");
HSSFRow row1 = worksheet.getRow(3);
Iterator rows = worksheet.rowIterator();
int noOfRows = 0;
while( rows.hasNext() ) {
HSSFRow row = (HSSFRow) rows.next();
noOfRows++;
}
System.out.println("Number of Rows: " + noOfRows);
