Open a Workbook with XLWINGS without making it visible

Question

I am starting to use XLWings (not that I like Excel, at all, but it is something I HAVE TO do). The thing is that I cannot find the way to make Python open a Workbook without sh

Answer 1

You can also try:

import xlwings as xw

app = xw.App(visible=False)
book = xw.Book('PATH_TO_YOUR_XLSX_FILE')
sheet = book.sheets('sheetname')
df = sheet.range('A1:D10)
book.close()
app.quit()

Answer 2

Here is my working code fragment:

    import xlwings

    excel_app = xlwings.App(visible=False)
    excel_book = excel_app.books.open('PATH_TO_YOUR_XLSX_FILE')
    excel_book.save()
    excel_book.close()
    excel_app.quit()

Answer 3

You could try 'with open', for example

with open ("write.csv", "a", newline='') as file:  
    fields=['score', 'name']                       
    writer=csv.DictWriter(file, fieldnames=fields)
    writer.writerow({'score' : score, 'name' : username})

with open ("write.csv", "r") as file:
    sortlist=[]
    reader=csv.reader(file)
    for i in reader:
        sortlist.append(i)
