--- Comment #1 from PJ Fanning <[email protected]> ---
For this data format, POI is using the java.text.DecimalFormat class.
This class treats format "60#########" as illegal.
Formats like "AB########" work but the Java class does not like the attempt to
prefix the number with another number.
This format "60#########" does work in Excel.
I still think that the Java behaviour is better than the Excel behaviour in the
case. I think there are better ways to prepend 60 onto a number, eg using a
formula like `=CONCATENATE("60", A1)`.
