open doc -> replaceText -> save doc -> ERROR: “Word was unable to read this document. It may be corrupt."
Dear all
There are problem when I want to replace text-elements with apache poi. But
not finding the replacing-method is the problem - the doc is damaged and
unable to be opened after writing.
The line which causes the error is the following:
"p.replaceText(searchText, replaceTxt, offset);"
error-message
-------------
“Word was unable to read this document. It may be corrupt.
Try one or more of the following:
* Open and Repair the file.
* Open the file with the Text Recovery converter.
(\…\test.doc)”
Can you help me - is there a workaround?
Thx Thomas
my code:
String file_in_path =
"C:/Users/Thomas/Desktop/20110729/BN_Vertragsdaten_123.doc";
String file_out_path =
"C:/Users/Thomas/Desktop/20110729/ausgabe_BN_Vertragsdaten_123.doc";
String searchText = "Vertragsart";
String replaceTxt = "NEW_Vertragsart_NEW";
HWPFDocument doc = null;
try {
POIFSFileSystem ps = new POIFSFileSystem(new
FileInputStream(file_in_path));
doc = new HWPFDocument(ps);
} catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
Range range = doc.getRange();
for (int x = 0; x < range.numSections(); x++) {
Section s = range.getSection(x);
for (int y = 0; y < s.numParagraphs(); y++) {
Paragraph p = s.getParagraph(y);
String paraText = p.text();
int offset = paraText.indexOf(searchText);
if (offset != -1) {
System.out.println("REPLACED");
p.replaceText(searchText, replaceTxt, offset);
}
}
}
try {
OutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(file_out_path);
doc.write(out);
out.flush();
out.close();
} catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}

No there is only one output System.out.println("REPLACED");
When I open the doc-file with openoffice and save it I can open it with
Windows and the string is replaced. So I don't think there is an infinite
loop.

Just to add here, when the replaceText() method strings are same, it is
going in an infinite loop ?

I use poi-3.8.beta4-20110725
Yes, there are bookmarks inside the document and I want to replace them. It
would be great if the replacement of bookmarks would work for every document
a user creates (bookmarks in tables etc).
Is this possible? Or is it possible to say
"doc.change_bookmark(Bookmark bookmark, String replacementText)" like
"doc.getBookmarks()" which is possible in poi-3.8.beta4?
best regards,
Thomas

Hi,
What version of POI are you using?
Does document have "special" elements like fields, bookmarks, annotations?

Best regards,
