[Zope] is there a zope product for generating spreadsheets?

[Thomas Bennett]

I don't know if there is a reason not to use this but no one has mentioned 
PyUNO.

http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Python

From that page:
"OpenOffice.org ships with a python scripting language, version 2.3.4. This 
Python distribution comes with the Uno module which connects the UNO API with 
the python scripting language."

I'm thinking it should allow you to read from a spreadsheet and then you would 
have to format output as you want.

There are a lot of other links related to pyuno, I notice one is a tutorial.

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=openoffice+3+python&btnG=Search

and if you add 'calc' to the search you can narrow down the  search and find 
things like 

"OpenOffice.org Utility Library, or ooolib in short, is actually more than one 
library module. Included are a Python module (ooolib-python) and a Perl module 
(ooolib-perl).

The Python module is currently focused on Calc and can be used to create 
OpenDocument Format Calc spreadsheets."
