Got the following error message while opening an Excel 2007 file: Exception in thread "main" java.io.IOException: It is not a valid excel2007 file.For input string: "8.5"

Hi I am trying to open an Excel 2007 file created in Excel 2003 using the Microsoft Compatibility Pack for 2007 Office System and I am getting the following error:

Exception in thread “main” java.io.IOException: It is not a valid excel2007 file.For input string: “8.5”
at com.aspose.cells.Workbook.open(Unknown Source)

I’ve attach the XLSX file that I am using. I also tried out the newly hot fix attached in Invalid print quality error opening Excel 2007 file using Java - #4 by amjad.sahi - Free Support Forum - aspose.com and it didn’t solve the problem. Please advise.
