RE: RPG, Excel, POI36 - after putting rows into an existing worksheet, the cells are protected.

Fyi - Simple thing, the worksheet I was writing data into -was- protected, but still let
you manually make and edit entries into rows/columns. But when doing it programmatically
the cells 'picked-up' the protection. Seems goofy to me but, hey, I'm not an excel guru.


I'm using rpg to loop thru a small file and write rows/cells into an existing worksheet.
Before running the rpg program, the worksheet cells are not protected, after running the
rpg program and populating the rows, the cells are protected. If you go to the row right
after the inserted rows, the cells are not protected so it seems any cell that gets
written is having cell protection turned on?
