'Unreadable content' Office 2003 #100

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
My application is designed to compile a single report out of multiple files 
containing data pulled from our database.

This is achieved by:

* setting a string to the path of the required file, opening it in one instance 
of Workbook

* Adding a new worksheet to the final workbook

* Setting the new worksheet to the single worksheet in the first workbook. 
(workbook1.worksheet[4] = workbook1.worksheet[0])

After saving an XLS file and opening it in Excel 2003, it displays an 
'Unreadable Content' error, and asks if i would like to recover.

When recovering the 'damaged' file, all of the added worksheets have garbage 
for names, and i get a few additional worksheets labeled 'recovered worksheet 
X'.

The data in the worksheets seem to be intact, though i haven't bothered with 
checking to make sure of it.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The 'workbook =' example contains a typo, that is not actual code in my app.

Also, this is not a web application, its a Win32 forms application.

My problem was being caused due to multiple Worksheets with the same name.

After fixing the duplicate naming, it runs fine.

Thanks for the awesome library!
