Hi Avik,
I tried reading Excel5.0/95 using POI APIs but it failed.
Exception in thread "main" java.io.FileNotFoundException: no such
entry: "Workbook" at
org.apache.poi.poifs.filesystem.DirectoryNode.getEntry(DirectoryNode.
java:245)at
org.apache.poi.poifs.filesystem.POIFSFileSystem.createDocumentInputSt
ream(POIFSFileSystem.java:322)at
org.apache.poi.hssf.usermodel.HSSFWorkbook.<init>(HSSFWorkbook.java:1
57)at
org.apache.poi.hssf.usermodel.HSSFWorkbook.<init>(HSSFWorkbook.java:1
30)
at Excel97Read.main(Excel97Read.java:41)
Does this mean that POI doesn't support Excel5.0/95.
Regards
Ravi

Subject Re: faq on the POI
POI tries to be as compatible with Excel as possible. It does not know or care
about sheets produced by other products. If its a valid xls file, POI will
process it, subject to POI's own functionality limitations.
