Description Isabelle Luyckx 2002-10-21 13:45:31 UTC 
Hello,

I try to create a new file from an existing Excel file. My program works well 
on WAS3.5 on NT.
But when I deploy my program on WAS3.5 on Mainframe, when opening generated 
file, Excel displays "File error. Some number formats may have been lost." and 
all string from the template file were unreadable.
I used POI-1.8.0-dev.

source of the program :

FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(FmkPropertiesManager.getRootDir()
	+ "model.xls");
POIFSFileSystem fs = new POIFSFileSystem(sourceModel);
HSSFWorkbook wb = new HSSFWorkbook(fs);
fis.close();

FileOutputStream fileOut = new FileOutputStream
(FmkPropertiesManager.getUploadPath()+resultName);
wb.write(fileOut);
fileOut.close();

We need the code used to generate it (simplest runnable code which replicates
the problem), the generated sheet, etc.  I don't remember when the default
character set fixes were put in but htis seems releated.  Once you provide those
things please reopen.  (click "create a new attachment)
