Re: POI 3.11 NullPointerException when doing removeSheetAT() for .xls file

Note that indexes are updated when you delete a sheet.  E.g. at first you
have three sheets, namely 0, 1 and 2. After removing 0, you have two
sheets, namely 0 (was 1) and 1 (was 2). If your code looks like this:

  workbook.removeSheetAt(0);
  workbook.removeSheetAt(2);

Then that will fail indeed, because index 2 is not valid anymore after
removing sheet 0.

Re: POI 3.11 NullPointerException when doing removeSheetAT() for .xls file

Posted by kgtokm <kg...@acmoore.com>.
Hi all,

Thanks for the reply

Adrian Lynch

I will send my code tomorrow as I don't have access to the code right now

 Tohnmeister

I have a for loop to remove the sheets which loops from 0 to number of sheets to be removed.
If I have to remove sheet 0 , it fails at the 1st attempt itself. I believe this might be related to indexes but I couldn't figure it out

Please note that the same code works for .xlsx

Thanks
