How to reference Excel table column names in XLWings?

Question

Does XLWings allow my to interact with Excel tables (available in Excel 2007 and later via menu or ctrl+t) by table and column names? This does exist in the young, open sourcep

Answer 1

Square bracket access works, see e.g. here:

For example to get the data of a specific column:

import xlwings as xw
wb = xw.Workbook.active()
xw.Range('TableName[ColumnName]').value

Or to get the column including header and Total row, you could do:

xw.Range('TableName[[#All], [ColumnName]]').value
