I have generated few Excel files (.xls) files.
Files having rows > 10 and Columns > 12 are readable in ExcelReader(http://exceldatareader.codeplex.com/)
Files having rows or columns less than that have a problem in reading.
the Error while Reading is : "Error reading Workbook Globals - Stream has invalid data."
But ExcelReader is working fine and can read 3column 3 row excel file (.xls) file created through MsOffice 2007.

This issue looks to be out of support scope of NPOI because you want NPOI to be compatible with another third party library ExcelReader. NPOI is designed and tested against Microsoft Excel. As long as Microsoft Excel can read that xls, it's not a bug for NPOI.
Is it possible that this is a bug of ExcelReader? If it's true, it's not worth the efforts from NPOI team because it's not a NPOI bug.
Anyway, if you do want to solve this issue, you can buy 1 on 1 consulting service from NPOI team. I'm willing to help figure it out. For detail of the service, please contact tonyqus@gmail.com.
