No, CSV is not an option. I need to generate an Excel that users will
run macros on. I can possibly (and hopefully) have a template that
already has the macros in it, and just load the new data on the
template every time a user hits the "download" button.

J,

This is a VBA problem not a python problem

Your template needs to eat something and whether it is an excel file or a CSV is irrelevant. At some point a convert or import command needs to get your data into your spreadsheet.

The only way python can do this is (i) through automation (e.g. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms178745%28v=vs.90%29.aspx), or (2) by creating a Excel File of data with macros already inserted. Otherwise python is only used to create the datafile and whether this is CSV, dBase or Excel format is irrelevant as long as the process of importing into the template can be automated.
