Here are the steps to compile and run the attached sample COBOL program (in readxls.zip) which will read an Excel spreadsheet and display the contents. This sample uses Apache POI.
Or if you want you can add C:\poi-3.6\poi-3.6-20091214.jar to your system CLASSPATH using the Control Panel : System : Advanced : Environment Variables dialog.
I think you will be able to see how to modify this sample to do what you need it to. If you need help please let our support team know.
