Hi. I'm using jakarta POI to create ppt files ( http://jakarta.apache.org/poi/hslf/index.html ). These files (which open perfectly in Powerpoint) do not open in OpenOffice, and give the error - Error loading document file://<documentname> Version Incompatibility. Incorrect File Version.
For now, I've narrowed down the occurance to ppt files which contain multiple slides. A poi created file with single slide, and some content in the slide opens fine in openoffice. I created a test case where there are only two blank slides and nothing else. This file opens fine in powerpoint, but gives the above error. The file opens in OpenOffice once we saveas from powerpoint. Could someone help by identifying the problem (where OpenOffice gets stuck) for us so that we can either alter the POI code ourself, or get back to the POI developers with the problem so that they can have a go at it? OR maybe if it's a problem with OpenOffice, at least we could have an identification of the problem and then a bug could be registered. The test-case files are located at http://www.prithvitech.com/prashant/poi_impress_test_case.zip Thanks and Regards, Prashant
