Which version are you using? There was a bug wherein the file would get corrupted if more than a particular number of unique strings were there in the sheet. This bug has been fixed in current CVS, if you want to try that out.
Or it could be a similar but different bug.. in which case its down to reading hex dumps again :( You say its the same data ... are you sure its *exactly* the same data? If it is, then its a big bug... I dont think it would be memory issue while generating.. not if you are able to consistently replicate the error.

If i try to open the workbook that i had generated earlier, it opens perfectly with 27 tabs. But this new workbook having same data fails to open. It just flashes the MSExcel with no document on it. > > Could this be due to some memory problem while generating the workbook repeatedly. Kindly help me to detect the problem.
