Hello,
I am working on a NPOI project & I need to know how to access the external links with respect to .xls & .xlsx files. I am able to work with rest all kind of objects but not with External links. When I access the cell formula, in .xls files, I get only the external file name but not the path it is pointing to whereas in .xlsx file, I dont get external file name but numeric value like [1] or [2] ect. Can anyone just let know how to access at external links using NPOI for .xls and .xlsx files. I looked at apache POI counterpart and they have method called getExternalLinks() through which we can get at external links but not in NPOI. Thank you.
