Hello, I would like to create and manipulate Open Office documents using Python. I have found then UNO Python page and odfpy modules which seem to be exactly what I need. The odfpy manual is, to me, a confusing list of objects and methods (it's an impressive list!), but does not have much in the way of how to use them. For example, I can open a spreadsheet and create new pages (there's a nice example near the back of the manual) but I can't figure out how to open an existing spreadsheet and list the names of the individual sheets ("tabs").
I have written an application that access Microsoft Excel and creates reports for work, but would like to create an Open Source version using Open Office and release it to the community (and maybe get a talk at PyCon :-). Is there someone here who can help me out, or is there an appropriate mailing list for me to join? Thanks --greg
