Re: Unable to use a template (xls) file containing a wmf graphic [SOLVED]

[Avik Sengupta <av...@itellix.com>]

Can you guys add example excel files to bugzilla, so that we can be sure
that this is fixed in a subsequent release. The more, the merrier.

RE: Unable to use a template (xls) file containing a wmf graphic

[Daniel Joshua <da...@gridnode.com>]

Thanks for you replies.

I added the file I used as an attachment to the bug...

Bug: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=27933
Attachment:
http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/showattachment.cgi?attach_id=11001

So if I upgrade to POI 2.0 Final instead of POI 2.5 Final, then it can work?
This does not sound as a solution to me, as I only discovered this bug when
I was trying to upgrade to 2.5.

So I guess I should upgrade to POI 2.0 Final for the time being...


PS: I think this is a serious problem and other people should be warned
about POI 2.5 Final.

Regards,
Daniel
