I solved the problem by using POI 3.0 alpha2 jar, if someone is
interested in knowing.
Have a good day,
Garima.

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:

at
org.apache.poi.hssf.record.RecordFactory.createRecords(RecordFactory.jav
a:160)

Here is the code sample:
(Second time tool is not able to get past the underlined,colored line
even)
FileInputStream inputStream = new FileInputStream(mpiFileLocation);
