Hello all, I am looking out for a python library which does the followingg. 1, create and manipulate openoffice spreadsheets.
OpenOffice, by default, creates ODF -- Open Document Format -- documents as zipped xml subdocuments. Ooo is just one of many programs that work with them. One can access the actual xml with any decent zip program, such as 7zip.
2, allow for cell formatting including merging cells. 3, allow for colouring cells and formatting data as bold italics etc. 4, alignment of data should be possible. I looked at ooolib but did not find a method for merging cells.
any ideas?
odf2py? Have not used it yet. To get an idea of how to do what you want to do, create a simple spreadsheet with merged and formatted cells with OOoCalc and then look at the resulting xml rendition.
