and my code is:

import java.io.File;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.Date;
import jxl.*;
import jxl.read.biff.BiffException;


public class Excel
{


public static void main(String[] args) throws BiffException, IOException
{
Workbook workbook = Workbook.getWorkbook(new File("//Volumes//ws.xls"));

Sheet sheet = workbook.getSheet(0);


int x;

for(int a = 0; a < 11 ; a++)
{
Cell a1 = sheet.getCell(0,a);

String stringa1 = a1.getContents();

x = Integer.parseInt(stringa1);

System.out.println(x);

}



}
}

The message says that the index 10 is past the end of the array.
The following code trys to get a cell with that index:
sheet.getCell(0,a);

Why do you think that there is a cell at index 10? You have the value 11 hardcoded in your program in the for loop. The loop goes from a=0 to 10 - that's 11 cells.
Is there a method you can call to get the correct number of cells?

ok, i changed it and i am not getting this message anymore :-) ur brilliant, i just don't know what to do with the other error message

That doesn't look like a java error message. It must be from the package you are using. You'll have to read its docs.

hey, thank u very much...
