POI and OpenOffice

[Bruno Marquie <br...@kelkoo.com>]

Hi all,

We have a compatibility problem between Open Office and the POI API to 
manage Excel Files. We can't succeed to read with POI files those were 
created initially by POI and modified after with Open Office. Our Java 
application freeze when trying to execute this line:

aWorkbook = new HSSFWorkbook(new FileInputStream(aWorkBookFileName));

BUT If we modify the file with microsoft Excel and read it after with 
POI , there is no problem! And if we try to create an Excel File with 
Open Office and read it after with POI, it's working too...

If someone have experienced the same problem, please help me!

Thanks,

Bruno

And also what I have identified is, if i try to modify the files in star office they will not be
opened by Microsoft Executables.
