Thanks Kumar, I installed xlrd, xlwt and xlsutils Now I'm stuck with exactly the same probem, that I had with ooolib. The newly written file lost all formating and replaced formulas with the calculated values. Does anyone have a simple example, which reads a file, modifies one cell and writes out WITHOUT oss of formatting / formulas? from xlrd import open_workbook from xlutils.copy import copy rb = open_workbook('doc1.xls') print "WB with %d sheets" % rb.nsheets wb = copy(rb) wb.save("doc2.xls") # file is created, but ALL formattng is lost and formulas are now diplayed as text > >> <snip> > -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
