XLS spreadsheet not writing

Apologies in advance for the lack of detail but to give a code dump is
impractical. I have a large Java app that is writing a four sheet XLS
workbook using poi. Everything seems to execute OK, the object model is
built and no errors result. When I try to output it to a stream using
HSSFWorkbook.write(), the statement executes without an error, however, the
spreadsheet is not created. The code works flawlessly and outputs a
workbook with two sheets, however, when I double it to 4 nothing happens.
Bizarre.

Anyone else had this experience ... any pointers.

Regards,

Phil Hewitt

if can you reproduce this problem in a "clean room" environment then you 
can infer that HSSF is the main culprit.  That also means we have a new 
testcase we can use for our regression tests :).

In other words, can ya isolate this outside of your application in a 
unit test that fails?  Minimize the amount of moving parts.
