How to copy a sheet between Excel workbooks in Java
How can I copy a sheet between two different workbooks in Apache poi?
The method is missing referring this thread. There is not such a solution.
Answer
After a researching and trying, here my solution. I was tested with java 1.6 and apache-poi 3.8
here i wan't to provide the solution worked for me, special in this case, i pas a worksheet and a List of input streams (different workbooks i want to merge).
My solution is a merged one, i've got merged the whole sourcecode from here i want to share this code with everyone, stuck on the same problem.
