Hello Karl,
I am using POI 2.5.1,

If I change the cell type Data->validations->settings-> Any value, tool starts 
reading it normally and there are no errors, but I can't force my users to do 
that,

Thanks Garima.

Hi Garima.

Which POI version do you use?

"Long" ago there were such problems using 2.5 which were not in 2.0. But I
think already with 2.5.1 such problems were removed.

If you're using a quite new version that something different should be the
reason.

Regards,        Karl-Heinz.

Got a project code release, could someone give pointers as to what all I
can try to correct the error?

My code is reading an excel file contains one of the cell as Data ->
validation -> settings -> List type, able to read first time but if I
change the list cell value using the drop down and save and try reading
again I get the following error:




java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException




            at
sun.reflect.GeneratedConstructorAccessor134.newInstance(Unknown Source)




            at

a:160)




            at
org.apache.poi.hssf.usermodel.HSSFWorkbook.<init>(HSSFWorkbook.java:163)







Here is the code sample:

(Second time tool is not able to get past the underlined,colored line
even)




FileInputStream inputStream = new FileInputStream(mpiFileLocation);

poiFileSystem = new POIFSFileSystem(inputStream);

workBook = new HSSFWorkbook(poiFileSystem,false);




Please help,

Thanks in advance,

Garima.
