If you're on Windows the command would be `py -m pip install openpyxl` (since it sounds like you didn't check the box at install time to add python to your PATH), although I would suggest doing `py -m pip install --user openpyxl` instead (a virtual environment would be better, but explaining that is off-topic for this mailing list).

Mathew,

 

Thank you for your quick response.

 

Does “cmd” shell mean MS-Windows command prompt ?

 

I executed in Windows command prompt and the result is shown below:

 

C:\Users\N.Morihira>pip install openpyxl

Pip is not recognized as executable command at Windows command prompt and so is Python command line.

Hi,

Brett is just saying that you should first open a "cmd" shell, and, at
the cmd prompt, type:

pip install openpyxl

Your problem (which is relatively common) is that you were typing the
command at the Python prompt, instead of the cmd prompt.

Best,

Matthew
