HSSF is crashing trying to read some of my Excel spreadsheets. This is with jakarta-poi-1.5.1-final-20020615.jar. I have downloaded the source and I am prepared to work on fixing the problem myself. I have recompiled the module in question to add debugging code so I can see what is different about the spreadsheets that crash. However neither jar nor WinZip can add the class file into the existing jar.
Any pointers would be appreciated. java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException: java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException: String index out of range: 3 at java.lang.String.<init>(String.java:366) at java.lang.String.<init>(String.java:447) at org.apache.poi.hssf.record.HeaderRecord.fillFields(HeaderRecord.java:121) at org.apache.poi.hssf.record.Record.fillFields(Record.java:142) at org.apache.poi.hssf.record.Record.<init>(Record.java:104) at org.apache.poi.hssf.record.HeaderRecord.<init>(HeaderRecord.java:91) at java.lang.reflect.Constructor.newInstance(Native Method) at org.apache.poi.hssf.record.RecordFactory.createRecord(RecordFactory.java:246 at org.apache.poi.hssf.eventmodel.HSSFEventFactory.processEvents(HSSFEventFacto ry.java:141) Jim Cobban [EMAIL PROTECTED] 34 Palomino Dr. Kanata, ON, CANADA K2M 1M1 +1-613-592-9438
