Summary: OldExcelFormatException on BIFF8 file
Product: POI

Platform: PC
OS/Version: Windows Vista

Severity: normal

Hi,
I got an excel file which I want to open:
FileInputStream inxls = new FileInputStream("file.xls");
HSSFWorkbook wb = new HSSFWorkbook(inxls);
This throws an exception
Warning, incorrectly terminated empty data blocks in POIFS block listing
(should end at -2, ended at 0)
Warning, incorrectly terminated empty data blocks in POIFS block listing
(should end at -2, ended at 0)
org.apache.poi.hssf.OldExcelFormatException: The supplied spreadsheet seems to
be Excel 5.0/7.0 (BIFF5) format. POI only supports BIFF8 format (from Excel
versions 97/2000/XP/2003)
When I take the XLVersionFromFile program from MS
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/178605 I get:
The Excel Version is 8
I checked with 3.7 and 3.6.
What is wrong ?
Regards
Volker Jordan
