Werner, 

Thanks for your patches. 

Abt recalc .. actually, poi does not have any "calc" functionality as yet. The 
idea (at least mine :) is that poi is an api for reading and writing Excel/OLE2 
files, and not a functional replacement for Excel/Word etc. 

As per this philosophy, poi at the moment just writes the formulas in a string 
as per the excel format, but does not actually calculate the result value of 
the formula. the cell value record is set to 0  (of course, we need to change 
that for string formulas .. but thats another story). We depend on Excel 
automatically recalculating the sheet on open. (This happens on office 2000+, 
there is a record we can set to ensure it happens on 97 as well. )

I dont know if it should be any other way. do we want to have an implementation 
of MMULT for example in poi? 

That having been said, if you have a better idea, please, fire away. 

Regards
