Bug ID: 54591
Summary: Excel: unreadable content error when opening POI
generated xls in Excel on Windows 7
Product: POI
Version: 3.9
Hardware: PC

Use this class to generate files that will not open in Excel under Windows 7
I have attached a very simple example class that produces the most simple xls
file possible that illustrates this problem. The problem is that when I try to
use Excel on Windows 7 to open the file generated using POI, Excel will not
open it and shows an error (unreadable content error). The same file can be
opened in Excel 2008 for Mac.
The following MS article explains an issue that may be the issue here:

To replicate, compile the attached java class with poi 3.9. Run it to produce
the xls. Then under windows 7, try to open the file in Excel. You should see
the error. I also observe the issue back poi 3.0.1.
