I posted the following question on stackoverflow but do not seriously think I will get any answers to the question and was hoping that one of you may know if what I want to do is even possible and if so, will a novice like me be able to do it; and most importantly, how to do it, at least conceptually.
I have a series of data requests that I partially automate through ArcGIS and python scripting. The only hurdle I am really struggling with is how to get the excel tables into the word document. Right now I can run the analyses, format the results into paragraphs with the text that I want, and output the maps in pdf format. The pywin32 package has allowed me to execute the excel macros that import the dbf files, reformat the data in the tabular format I want, and export out to an xlsx workbook. To have the process completely automated, I would need to also load the excel tables into the word document. This is where I am at a complete loss. I haven't a clue as to where to even start to accomplish this. Could you please take a quick look at my post and let me know if this is doable, and if so, point me in the right direction as to how to accomplish this? The files I created to run the sample program are 4 very small files if anyone would like me to forward them to look at. A trillion thanks. Claudine.
