This is the bit that matters. There's a problem with creating one of the
chart records for your file
In theory, the record should be padded with 6 bytes at the end, but it
looks like in your case it isn't. Can you share the problem file so we can
look into it?
Also, if you fancy checking the Microsoft docs on this record (it'll be in
the [MS-XLS].pdf file, look it up by the sid of 0x0855) and see what they
say about the contents of the record, that'd be handy.
2.6 i read in some tickets about BiffViewer analysis. I hope i can be
excused for not managing to get ahold of BiffViewer (where is it? how is
it run? i'm getting too old for this sort of thing...). I found other
purported BiffViewers on the web and tried to look at a working file vs
this nonworking file (in the pre-reduced state) but could make no sense
of what i saw there.
It's included in the main POI jar. The class is
org.apache.poi.hssf.dev.BiffViewer, and it has a main method - just call
it with the name of the file to be analyzed
