Hi,

There are a couple of options, for excel connectivity in Python.

XLRD :- Reading from XLS and XLSX files.
XLWT :- Writing to XLS files (currently no support for XLSX)

OPENPYXL :- Read and Write only XLSX file. (No support for XLS)

Regards,
Karthik

Hi

For parsing .xls files with Python, I've used xlrd lib (
https://pypi.python.org/pypi/xlrd) quite extensively.
Let's you move around multiple sheets aswell and parse data easily.

Konark
