           Summary: Can have no more than 60 form controls on a sheet
           Product: POI
           Version: 2.5
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: P1
         Component: HSSF
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


Using the HSSF readwrite test I can have no more than 60 form controls on a
worksheet else Excel cannot read the file that is created by POI. Error message
from Excel is: 'Damage to the file was so extensive that repairs were not 
possible.'

The original spreadsheet is created in Excel. 61 form controls are placed. It
does not seem to matter which form control is used, problem reproducible using
option buttons, checkboxes and normal buttons.

Example spreadsheet files to follow. This problem can be reproduced just by
running the HSSF readwrite test.
java -cp poi.jar org.apache.poi.hssf.dev.HSSF 61buttons.xls out61.xls

This problem occurs using 2.5 and 3.0a releases at least.

Thanks for your work on POI.
