I am new to POI, and I have to use an older version of POI in existing
project at work.

One thing I noticed is if I add formula OR(AK3="",AK3="") to a cell using POI
and open that in MS-Excel,  the value of the cell is show as #VALUE!

The Java statement I use is
  cell.setCellFormula("OR(AK3=\"\",AL3=\"\")");

I could enter the same formula =OR(AK3="",AK3="") directly in MS-Excel
and get result as TRUE or FALSE.

So question
1. Is this bug fixed in latest version of POI?
2. Is there already a bug entry for this?


PS:
1. Right now I solved my problem by using 2 =IF(,,) instead of =OR(,)

2. Version details.
