Re: issue with Excel formula

Altering the name of the exension should also hide them from the loader,
because its looking for anything with a .jar, and maybe a couple other
things.

Renaming the files by putting XX in front of them would not stop them
from being used if they are in a Java "ext" directory, or similar.

Consider creating a "/backup" directory or some such, and moving all of
the files to that location, instead of renaming with "XX".

Ok, I think I need a little more help on this.
I used qshell Find
find / -name 'poi*'

Found a few poi jar files.
In /QIBM/PRODDATA
/QIBM/USERData
/excel

I renamed them by placing an XX at the beginning of the file names.

I reran one of my programs to create a spreadsheet, expecting it to fail

but it created the spreadsheet.

I also checked WRKENVVAR looking to see if we had set up a classpath, but

did not see any listed.

So if I've renamed these why do my programs still create the

spreadsheets?
