PPT Error on Writing Presentation

["Havard, Nick" <ni...@savvis.net>]

Hi

I am working with POI to manage some powerpoint presentations. A simple
test, is giving me the following strange error.
===========================
Couldn't find the new location of the "slide" with id 223 that used to
be at 19389
Not updating the position of it, you probably won't be able to find it
any more (if you ever could!)
===========================

The code I am using is simply reading an existing ppt presentation and
wrting it back out as a new file.

To read file in.
      SlideShow ppt = null;
      ppt = new SlideShow(new HSLFSlideShow("c:\\files\nh.ppt"));

To write file back out.

      FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream("c:\\files\\njh.ppt");
      ppt.write(fos);
      fos.close();

The ppt that is being read in (nh.ppt), use to be a much larger ppt
which I have trimmed down for the purposes of development and testing.
The ppt has a single master slide (with title master) and three
presentation slides. Is it likely that there are references to some of
the deleted slides in the presentation hanging around. How can I work
around this issue as its quite urgent to sort out?

I am using a version of POI that I compiled myself from source
downloaded from the subversion repository.

Thanks for your help.

Create a bug in bugzilla and attach the ppt.

We already had similar issues. So far we considered them as anomalies
that are rare to happen. But now I'm inclined to think it's "normal".
Attach the file and we will see what can be done.
