Re: [Gretl-users] Support to "xlsx" files
Two remarks, one to point out a workaround, one for a potential future
solution:
The workaround: One could use LibreOffice (or OpenOffice) to read the
xlsx file and then save as a format which gretl understands.
A potential solution: Instead of having Allin code the xlsx import stuff
in C, one could leverage available Python libraries to do that. If gretl
added foreign-language support for Python, I would promise to contribute
a function that reads xlsx files within three months (of course, Python
would need to be available on the user's system for that). But my guess
is that Allin in one of his coding flashes solves the problem before that...
cheers,
sven

I'd like to improve the gretl-excel interoperation but without a com
object it becomes really hard.

Not for 1.9.6, I think, but maybe thereafter.
