Hi,

I've a problem using POI with java. 
Sometimes when I want to open a worddoc to get its content it doesn't work.
I get a NullPointerException looking like this one: 

java.lang.NullPointerException

On some document it works without any problems, but on some specific ones it
just doesn't work. I can't find any equality in the word docs on which it
doesn't work. Maybe someone of you has had a similar problem before and knows
why this exception appears?!

Here is a code example with which I'm trying to get the content of the word
doc: 

try {
      fis = new FileInputStream(worddoc);  // worddoc is the word-file
      doc = new WordDocument(fis);

      doc.openDoc(); //open the document

      swriter = new StringWriter(); //construct a swriter since
WogrdDocument.writeAllText needs a writer

      //dump the document-text to our swriter to see if HDF works basically
      doc.writeAllText(swriter);
      content = swriter.toString();
    }
    catch (IOException e) {
      e.printStackTrace();
    }

I hope someone can help me

thx Amr�n
