Wolfgang,

   MS doesn't recommend it in a non-interactive environment:

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;288366

Also requires office on the server which is not a good (secure) thing.

Cool, but:
I don't understand the sense...
It is very much easier accessing Office with VB, C++ (C# ?)and OLE. Why
should I want to use the complex Poi stuff, when 
I can do it so simple like in VB without POI?
I thought the only reason using POI isJava...
