Hi, I use POI to import quite large and complex Excel files having a lot of formulas. Some of these formulars are stored as "shared formulas". I can open the file, but when I try to call HSSFFormulaEvaluator.evaluate() I get a RecordFormatException on some cells:
org.apache.poi.hssf.record.RecordFormatException: Coding Error: Expected ExpPtg to be converted from Shared to Non-Shared Formula at org.apache.poi.hssf.record.formula.ExpPtg.toFormulaString(ExpPtg.java:78) at org.apache.poi.hssf.model.FormulaParser.toFormulaString(FormulaParser.java:886) at org.apache.poi.hssf.model.FormulaParser.toFormulaString(FormulaParser.java:868) at org.apache.poi.hssf.usermodel.HSSFCell.getCellFormula(HSSFCell.java:630) I think there is a bug in the implementation of shared formulas. I'm using the current POI 3.0 RC. The problem also occured in POI 2.5.1 (not an Exception but a text like "NO IDEA SHARED FORMULA" was shown. Thx for help, Regards, Günter -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Shared-formulas-tf3713978.html#a10389085 Sent from the POI - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mailing List: http://jakarta.apache.org/site/mail2.html#poi The Apache Jakarta Poi Project: http://jakarta.apache.org/poi/
