I interprete this message as follows: the excel content in your file is wrapped in an atypical way (an OLE2 compound document) and "xlrd" does not fully support this way. Looking at the "xlrd" source code (searching for "OLE2") may give you more hints. > ... > The only thing differente from others excel files, is that this workbook is > protected, not with password, but I can't write on it, just open and read (on > my computer, not on python) Likely, this kind of protection causes excel to choose a special wrapping, not fully supported by "xlrd". -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
