           Summary: Add an ignore warning for cells with Numbers as Text
           Product: POI
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows XP
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: HSSF
        AssignedTo: dev@...
        ReportedBy: joe.knudsen@...


To avoid the warning given by Excel 2002 and greater when a number is stored in
a Text cell.  When stored as numbers Excel makes change like removing leading
zeros.  From the Excel GUI you can ignore the warning on a per cell basis.  I
will attach two files one with the warning (green corner in the cell) and one
where that one cell has been set to ignore.  Here is the Biff output of the two
files after a diff on the output.

$ diff biffNormal.txt biffIgnoreError.txt
1690a1691,1702

> recordid = 0x867, size = 19
> [UNKNOWN RECORD:867]
>     .id        = 867
> [/UNKNOWN RECORD]
>
> Offset 0x6f3 (1779)
> recordid = 0x868, size = 39
> [UNKNOWN RECORD:868]
>     .id        = 868
> [/UNKNOWN RECORD]
>
> Offset 0x71e (1822)

0x867 = 2151 = FeatHdr = Page 278 of the binary documentation

0x868 = 2152 = Feat = Page 277 of the binary documentation

First we'll need to implement the records, then we can look at hooking them
into the usermodel
