I need to display the entire Page of an Excel file in a Java GUI Application, I see that the POI Library May not help Much in this as I want spreadsheet view. What is the best way to do this in An Applet, swing, or a jSP Page? Any other Suggestions apart from Java Also welcome.

You can leverage an existing Excel installation by using the Desktop

1You can use [tag:poi], for [example](http://stackoverflow.com/a/3562214/230513) and [tag:jfreechart], but it's _very_ labor intensive. I don't know an easy solution. – trashgod Nov 21 '12 at 07:47
