What is the HSSF "eventmodel"?
</question>
<answer>
- <p>
The HSSF eventmodel package is a new API for reading XLS files more
efficiently. It does
require more knowledge on the part of the user, but reduces memory
consumption by more than
tenfold. It is based on the AWT event model in combination with SAX.
If you need read-only
access to a given XLS file, this is the best way to do it.

Why am I getting an exception each time I attempt to read my
spreadsheet?

It's possible your spreadsheet contains a feature that is not currently
supported by HSSF.
For example - spreadsheets containing cells with rich text are not
currently supported.

+ Does HSSF support protected spreadsheets?
+ </question>
+ <answer>
+ Protecting a spreadsheet encripts it. We wont touch encription because
we're not legally educated
+ and don't understand the full implications of trying to implement this.
If you wish to have a go
+ at this feel free to add it as a plugin module. We wont be hosting it
here however.
