Hi Nigel. Look at the OpenOffice documentation (for the hex numbers).
There you find descriptions of codes. We had cases where such warnings didn't mind and others where e.g. Excel afterwards made problems when opening the file. Rebuilding Excel files from the scratch we could remove such warnings in some cases.

Hi, I am currently running a few test to see if I can reuse some excel files which contain data, without having to design a proper database around them. I wrote the following code, which attempts to read the number of sheets from an existing file. code: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -------- import java.io.*;import org.apache.poi.hssf.usermodel.*;import org.apache.poi.poifs.filesystem.*; public class Test { public static void main (String []args) throws IOException{ POIFSFileSystem fs = new POIFSFileSystem(New FileInputStream("Test.xls")); HSSFWorkbook wb = new HSSFWorkbook(fs); int i = wb.getNUmberOfSheets(); System.out.println(i); }} ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -------- The code compiles, but when I run the program I recieve the following warnings [WARNING] Unknown Ptg 69 (105) //repeated four times [WARNING] Unknown Ptg 11 (17) at cell (29,4) //repeated for a few different cells [WARNING] Unknown Ptg 69 (105) at Cell (121,4) // The Ptg 69 warning again this time on a number of different cells. Then eventually I receive a java.lang.OutOfMemoryError and the program exiting. Sorry for the long winded build up to my questions. What are these Warnings, can I find any documentation on them ? How do I prevent them and is there a limit to the size of Excel file I can read ? _________________________________________________________________ Help STOP SPAM with the new MSN 8 and get 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/junkmail --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
