Creating encrypted workbooks using HSSF


Hello,

we have a requirement to create encrypted workbooks (so that user is asked
for the password when he opens workbook in Excel) and we use POI HSSF.  We
can read workbooks that are already encrypted using Biff8EncryptionKey
.setCurrentUserPassword(), but it does not affect workbooks we create.  Is
creation of encrypted workbooks supported in POI? If not,, what kind of
other solutions can be suggested ?

Thanks
