Hi,

  I am using jakarta-poi-1.8.0-dev-20020910.jar . I want to set the cell color 
red. But if I am doing so I am getting the value(content) of the cell as red 
color but not the entire cell red color. I am doing so using following code :

        HSSFCellStyle    cs     = hssfworkbook.createCellStyle();
        HSSFFont         f      = hssfworkbook.createFont();
        f.setColor(f.COLOR_RED);
        cs.setFont(f);
        cell.setCellStyle(cs);

   Is it that using POI we can't set the cell color(not the content of the 
cell) as red color.

    Will be very happy with your sooner reply.

Rgds,
