           Summary: Directory node entry "WORKBOOK" instead of "Workbook"
           Product: POI
           Version: 2.5
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Windows XP
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: HSSF
        AssignedTo: poi-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: stehau@online.de


Some XLS file (e.g. the ones created by Borlands Crystal tool) do contain all
upper case directory node entries, e.g. "WORKBOOK" instead of "Workbook". These
files can't be read with POI. It would make sense to allow for both forms.

Created an attachment (id=19058)
 --> (http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=19058&action=view)
An example with "WORKBOOK" in upper captial.

This is an example of a XLS file which can not be read with POI due to the
upper / lower case issue described in the bug report.

It's not impossible that this change could be made

Could you please upload one of these files, so we'll have something to test
against if we do go ahead with the change?

I've committed a patch to HSSFWorkbook, which allows it to open both files
containing Workbook, and also WORKBOOK

If you do a svn checkout, or get tomorrow's nightly build, hopefully your
problem excel files will now be openable.
