Comment on Ask HN: report system, Excel or HTML?

Comments

What specifically is the problem? Are you likely to have more than 65K rows?

If not, Python's xlwt and xlrd modules handle support for native Excel in a very simple, OO, pythonic way, without any scary Windows or COM shit. I regularly generate and parse pretty big Excel files most days so I'd be happy to answer any questions.
