Hi, just thought I'd introduce myself and make you guys aware of what I think is an alternative to POIFS.
http://www.schemasoft.com/tools/structuredstorage.shtml SMART Technologies (www.smarttech.com) uses OLE Compound Document Format for it's SMART Notebook documents. We are developing a Java version of Notebook and I'm responsible for making sure it can read/write documents in the old format. The only utility we were aware of for letting a Java app do this was Schemasoft's. Unfortunately it costs US$5000. I did some research and found POI and it looks like just what I need. I really admire you guys for all the effort you've put into this project and the enthusiasm you have for it. I have a passion for good documentation and good OO Design. I'm hoping I might be able to you guys out with documentation of POIFS if I find any areas lacking or perhaps "Refactoring POIFS into imput and output classes as well as an event-driven API for reading". That is, if you guys are open to help in those areas. Cheers, Corey Nelson Software Developer SMART Technologies Calgary, Canada
