Trying to read an .xlsb file as a buffer and running into a an error that states Unexpected record 0x3b.

Having no problems with other similarly formatted files. Hoping that you all might have a better idea as to the underlying issue here as I've been unable to dig up any answers.

Thanks

0x3B is part of Excel's binary format it could be related to BrtIndexedColor record in BIFF12 spec, if so it could be part of the color palette definition. If possible, can you please share the file you were trying to read and the options you were using while reading it?
