I have just finished a major project using the xlrd and xlwt python libs. Theres also an xlutil lib as well which allows you to manipiulate excel. but i havent played with that one. (I also used pymssql to push this data into an MSSQL database.. but thats a different story)

For a sheet that holds basic data I havent found anything the libs wont do.

They work in Py3.3 and Py2.7

Regards,
David

At work I need to manipulate a series of excel spreasheets, and I seem
to remember that people have discussed the topic in a meeting. I have
two questions to anyone who's already had to do the same:

- What's the current best Python library for excel manipulation?
- Are there any limitations for handling Excel sheets under Linux?
What kind of thing would I need Windows (and presumably, a live copy
of Office) for?

As background for the question, I'm trying to avoid using Windows at
all. My ideal workflow would involve users downloading generated
spreadsheets from a webserver.

Thanks,

Javier
