Hi,
I'm attempting to write rows in a spreadsheet by copying an existing row
and writing it 'n' times. An example of the existing rows are:
A
1 0
2 A1+1
Where "A" is the column and "1" & "2" are the rows. In excel the
formula in A2 would be "=A1+1". When my program copies row 2, the
intent is that the inserted rows will have the following pattern:
3 A2+1
4 A3+1
...
The expected values for the rows are 0, 1, 2, 3, ... If I open the
resulting file in Excel or OpenOffice this is in fact what I see.
However, if I open the resulting file using my POI-powered application
and try and read it the rows contain the values 0, 1, 0, 0, ...
Now comes the weird part (for me anyway :>), if I open & save the file
that was created by the copy step above using either excel or openoffice
(with no *known* changes on my part) and re-read the file in my
POI-powered app I now see the expected values, namely 0, 1, 2, 3, ...
An earlier version of excel 2003 (pre-SP2) reported it corrected errors
in formulas, but didn't provide any details. Neither excel 2003/SP2 nor
openoffice report problems with the formulas.
Any ideas what's going on and what I can do to get the expected results
without the intervening step of saving the file using excel or
openoffice?
Thanks,
Rich
