--- Comment #7 from Dirk Schoenberger <[email protected]> 2010-12-02 05:11:02 EST --- Just wanted to ask if there are any news on this bug. Currently I maintain my patch in my own POI version, but I don't think this is optimal. The root of the problem, as far as I see is that the Excel file is a real ancient file (i.e. Excel/BIFF 5 or some such). I read that the maximum record length was much shorter in earlier Excel versions. At least the length of my Name record exceeds the maximum length of the (old) Excel file format, so that's where the Continue record comes from. However, I have not been able to create such a problematic file from scratch. I think it is a rather old file which was created in times / versions with much simpler validation rules.
