Still no luck. I upgraded to IE7 (that's the approved version for my company) and that didn't fix the problem.
I copied the six poi-*.jar files into the directory with my java/class files and that didn't fix the problem. I created a JAR file by typing "jar cf MyApp.jar *.class poi*.jar" and I updated my HTML to include archive="MyApp.jar" but that didn't fix the problem. This is quite a puzzling problem... there has got to be a solution Thomas
