  • 0

Using Apache Poi I’m exporting my table to an excel sheet. I extended ExcelExport class, override the getCellStyle method and customized my cell styles.

Now what i want is when a user edits any cell in the excel document i want that cell to change its color, so anyone later reviewing the document can easily see what has been changed.

Is there way to achieve this?

    One solution could be to add conditional formatting to the cells use Apache POI’s HSSFSheetConditionalFormatting.

    For example, if the cell value written by your program is 5 then your conditional formatting could set the cell background to yellow if the value wasn’t equal to 5
