My own job has some form requirements, one of which is a spreadsheet in Excel. Looks like I just found a way to automate that...
- Nicholas_C 13y agoWhy not just use VBA?
- omegaham 13y agoWell, I have an Excel version of this: [1] When I order a part, I have to enter all of this data. Most of the parts I order are repeat orders; I have all of my previous ones on file. I have a program right now that makes a LaTeX document for another form I have to fill out; I put in the NSN, and it populates the form with all of the rest of the information. Up until now, I'd thought that I wouldn't be able to do the same thing with an Excel spreadsheet, and I haven't been able to build a table like that in LaTeX. So, this extension to Python seems to be the best option.

- sebastianavina 13y agoso, you're willing to pay USD $500.00 just for that?
- mjhea0 13y agobecause there's a better, more powerful tool, which is also easier to use
- tocomment 13y agoPython also has excellent Excel libraries for reading and writing Excel documents natively. http://www.python-excel.org/ http://www.python-excel.org/
