XSSFSheet has the method getRow(int rownum) It returns the logical row ( 0-based). If you ask for a row that is not defined you get a null. This is to say row 4 represents the fifth row on a sheet.

Once you get the row, you can call getCell(int cellnum) method of XSSFRow object. It returns the cell at the given (0 based) index.
