How to insert into database reading from excel sheet using java POI?

Question

I'm reading the value from excel sheet using java POI and need to insert into database.I have string,numeric and date values from excel sheet as well as first fields are column header.

public class SimpleExcelReadExample {
  static Connection con1 = null;
  static Connection con3 = null;
  static PreparedStatement preparedstatement = null;
  static ResultSet resultset = null;
  int j = 0;

  public static void main(String[] args) {

        String fileName = "D:/Excel/Report.xls";
        Cleartables.table_daily_report();
        Vector dataHolder = read(fileName);
        saveToDatabase(dataHolder);
  }

  public static Vector read(String fileName) {
        Vector cellVectorHolder = new Vector();
        try {
              FileInputStream myInput = new FileInputStream(fileName);
              POIFSFileSystem myFileSystem = new POIFSFileSystem(myInput);
              HSSFWorkbook myWorkBook = new HSSFWorkbook(myFileSystem);
              HSSFSheet mySheet = myWorkBook.getSheetAt(0);
              Iterator rowIter = mySheet.rowIterator();
              while (rowIter.hasNext()) {
                    HSSFRow myRow = (HSSFRow) rowIter.next();
                    Iterator cellIter = myRow.cellIterator();
                    Vector cellStoreVector = new Vector();
                    while (cellIter.hasNext()) {
                          HSSFCell myCell = (HSSFCell) cellIter.next();
                          //System.out.println("read method"+myCell);
                          cellStoreVector.addElement(myCell);
                    }
                    cellVectorHolder.addElement(cellStoreVector);
              }
        } catch (Exception e) {
              e.printStackTrace();
        }
        return cellVectorHolder;
  }

  private static void saveToDatabase(Vector dataHolder)
  {

                    for (int i=0;i<dataHolder.size(); i++)
                    {
                       Vector cellStoreVector=(Vector)dataHolder.elementAt(i);
                       for (int j=0; j < cellStoreVector.size();j++)
                    {
                             System.out.println("show.....");
                            HSSFCell myCell = (HSSFCell)cellStoreVector.elementAt(j);

                           Please help me here....How to get the each column values  ?
                    }

for (int i=0;i<dataHolder.size(); i++) { Vector cellStoreVector=(Vector)dataHolder.get(i); rowid = ((HSSFCell)cellStoreVector.get(0)).toString(); System.out.println(rowid); — user441978

but i'm getting column header also...but already header in database table.So how to retrieve the value without header ? — user441978
– user441978, Commented Dec 26, 2012 at 7:45
Headers are only in the first line, right? So just skip that line? — Xiao Jia

Excel file insert into database. It works for me.

Imported jar files:

poi-ooxml 3.5-beta5
xmlbeans
apache-logging-log4j
dom4j-1.5
poi 3.10.1
poi 3.14
poi ooxml-schema 3.7-beta5

Dont forget to import database jar file.

Hope it will help you.
