POI Utility - Blank Cells And Formulas In ColdFusion 7 Custom Tags

Posted August 8, 2008 at 9:20 AM

Tags: ColdFusion

Small update for my POI Utility project that allows users to read and write native Excel files with ColdFusion. I have added formula support to the ColdFusion 7 version of my custom tags (used to create Excel files). I have also fixed a bug in both custom tag versions in which empty cells were not getting formatted with the defined CSS (thanks Tom Chiverton).

The new code can be download from my POI Utility Project page.
