Reading Excel checkbox values in Java Apache POI

问题

I have spent countless hours trying to find a solution to this. I have tried Apache POI, JExcel and JXLS but no where have I found code to successfully read checkbox (form control) values.

If anyone has found a working solution then it would be great if you could share it here. Thanks!

UPDATE

I have written code that reads the checkbox but it cannot determine whether it is checked or not.

Sorry for the late reply, but I ran into the same. I found a trick to determine the checkbox state.

In your example you ar looping over the SubRecords and you examine the CommonObjectDataSubRecord. But the value for the checkbox can be found in the one of the SubRecord.UnknownSubRecord. This is unfortunately a private class so you cannot call any method on it, but the toString() reveals the data, and with a little regex the value can be found. So using the code below I managed to retrieve the state of the checkbox:

Pattern p = Pattern.compile("\\[sid=0x000A.+?\\[0(\\d),");
if (!(subRecord instanceof CommonObjectDataSubRecord)) {
    Matcher m = p.matcher(subRecord.toString());
    if (m.find()) {
        String checkBit = m.group(1);
        if (checkBit.length() == 1) {
            boolean checked = "1".equals(checkBit);
            checkBox.setChecked(checked);
        }
    }
}

Now my challenge is to retrieve the checkbox value in a xlsx file...
