RE: Jakarta POI JAR file

Rick,

Download this zip file:
http://mirrors.mix5.com/apache/jakarta/poi/release/bin/poi-bin-2.5-final-200
40302.zip

The jar file you want is in the top level of the zip, the name is
poi-2.5-finial-20040302.jar

There are two other .jar files and two subdirectories in the zip.

NOTE: heard that 2.5 had some problems, you may want to use 2.0 instead.

>From the author of SQL2XLS 

"Apache/Jakarta dev group signalled that with POI-2.5 if you create an xls
from a template with a logo on it, it creates a corrupted xls (that cannot
be opened anymore).

Then if you downloaded and installed the version POI-2.5 I've sent you
yesterday, I suggest keep using the old POI-2.0.

Giuseppe."
