           Summary: data formats that contains spaces e.g. "# ##0" wrongly
                    interpreted by excel
           Product: POI
           Version: 3.0-dev
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: P2
         Component: HSSF
        AssignedTo: poi-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: marek@lewczuk.com


Please create a numeric cell (with value set to e.g. 1232423 and style it with
data format like this:
# ##0

When you will open generated workbook (in MS Excel) you will see that the format
has been modified to this:
#\ ##0

The change cause that the number like -1232423 isn't formated as it should be,
instead
1 232 423
we've got
1232 423

The problem doesn't exists when we open the workbook with Open Office Calc. I'm
using MS Excel 2000 (Polish version).
