http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=14729 can't merge more than 1027 times ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2002-11-21 19:18 ------- I have tried in excel, and yes it works for at least upto 65000 merged cells. I can send you the excel file I you like. I think I know what the cause of the bug is however - I think the CONTINUE record is not being used correctly. In BIFF8 the maximum biff size is of 8224 for the biff contents without the header, and a merged cell record requires 8 bytes per range. An additional 2 bytes are required at the beginning for the number of merged cell entries. For 1027 merged cells this equals 8*1027 + 2 = 8218 bytes, for 1028 merges a corrupt xls file is produced, and the biff entry contains 8*1028 + 2 = 8226 bytes, which exceeds the biff8 record structure! I assume the bug is therefore is the incorrect use of a CONTINUE record. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
