Yes indeed, pyExcelerator does support reading data from excel spreadsheets. An example of how to do this is included in the file xls2csv-gerry.py under the directory ... pyExcelerator/examples/tools Syntax is pretty straight forward. extract_all = parse_xls(filename, CP = None) where CP is the encoding format used within tht file. Uses same codes that xlrd uses, ie 'cp437' = US English.
All you need is the "parse_xls" command and simply let it iterate through your spreadsheet file. EXAMPLE: fname = "D:\\Directory\\myfile.xls" # an example filename for sheet_name, values in parse_xls(fname ): # parse_xls(arg) -- default encoding print " name of sheet is = ", sheet_name, Alternatively you can extract everything in one go... extract_all = parse_xls(fname) -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
