Workbook workbook = new Workbook("sample.xlsx");
//Get an instance of Chart from the collection of Charts in a Worksheet
Chart chart = workbook.getWorksheets().get(0).getCharts().get(0);
//Get the instance of Worksheet in which the Chart object was contained
Worksheet worksheet = chart.getWorksheet();
//Display Worksheet name
System.out.println("Chart's Sheet Name: " + worksheet.getName());Get a Spreadsheet’s Application Version using Java
