    Iterate over rows and cells (including Java 5 foreach loops) +

    Sometimes, you'd like to just iterate over all the rows in + a sheet, or all the cells in a row. If you are using Java + 5 or later, then this is especially handy, as it'll allow the + new foreach loop support to work.

    +

    Luckily, this is very easy. HSSFRow defines a + CellIterator inner class to handle iterating over + the cells (get one with a call to row.cellIterator()), + and HSSFSheet provides a rowIterator() method to + give an iterator over all the rows.
