Wrong cell type detection in Aspose.Cell

Aspose.Cells Product Family
1

Reading in an Excel file with custom number format is treated as a timestamp instead of number. Attached example file will show the bug. Number format is set to D-##### for German zip code but returned as a timestamp.

Hi,


Thanks for providing us template file.

Could you provide us your sample code to evaluate your issue on our end.

I have tested with the following code using v8.1.0.x, it reads correct value(s):
e.g
Sample code:

Workbook workbook = new Workbook(“test.xlsx”);
Worksheet ws = workbook.getWorksheets().get(0);
Cells cells = ws.getCells();

System.out.println(cells.get(“A1”).getStringValue());
System.out.println(cells.get(“A1”).getDisplayStringValue());

Thank you.

Hi there,

this is the code:

…
Iterator allRows = sheet.getCells().getRowEnumerator();
while(allRows.hasNext()) {
Row row = (Row)allRows.next();
…
Cell cell = row.get(i);
if(cell.getType() == CellValueType.IS_DATE_TIME) {
//entering this condition on custom formatted cells :frowning:
Date date = cell.getDateTimeValue().toDate();
…
} else …

Regards,

Steffen
