Excel file that causes an exception

I'm using org.apache.poi.hssf.extractor.ExcelExtractor class for reading Excel files and I've got an exception below. Problem file is zipped and attached, I tried to minimize it's contents to make it easier to investigate, but I have no enough Excel knoweledge to figure out what field causes the problem :)

Comment 1 Nick Burch 2008-03-13 06:19:44 UTC 
We were running out of data processing the validation rules in one of the DVRecords

For now, I've tweaked poi to issue a warning in this case, and carry on. Not sure if we'll then have garbage data validation rules then or not, but at least your file can be opened fine, and you ought to be able to get your text out

(Fixed in SVN trunk)
