http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=21305 Excel crashing when reading large files generated by POI Summary: Excel crashing when reading large files generated by POI Product: POI Version: 1.5.1 Platform: Other OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: Other Component: HSSF AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Our server-side application uses POI 1.5.1 to generate Excel files, which are then streamed over HTTP to the browser. Generally this process works fine, but some streamed files cause Excel to crash. The crash does not appear to be version-specific (we see the same results in Excel 97 and Excel XP). The Excel document generated always has 2 worksheets. We see the crash typically when there are > 300 rows and > 150 columns in one of the worksheets. I have read bug reports that Excel will crash if > 256 columns are used, but this is not the case for our worksheets. All our cell values are written as Strings. We don't use formulas or any other of the more sophisticated Excel facilities. I will attach an example file that exhibits this problem. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
