Read / Write OpenOffice SpreadSheet ?

thanks for your hint.  I was aware of that, OO files are a bunch of zipped 
XML files.  But, i searh for something more comfortable/highlevel that lets 
me just do things like doc.Cell(1, 3) = 'abc' or so.

Thanks, i read about it but as i understood it, UNO needs Python 2.3.x and 
i'd like to base on something actual.


Best regards,
Torsten.
