Excellent tutorial - well explained, 'no fluff, no noise; honest and down-to-earth'... I was missing a few bits and it was a pain of trial n'error... your video I filled the gaps... now I'm ready to take the plunge...
Hi Paul, since doing your webinar VBA course (thank you it has proved useful time and again) I wandered into Python, pandas and saw that they were powerful and useful but could not for the life of me see how I could use them in the office. So glad you are still here to help. It also looks like my role playing project is getting an upgrade!
You are an excellent teacher & I learned about VBA from you. Would love to see you have a full course on Python / Excel / xlwings. Would sign up immediately!
This video worth all the credits I can possibly give, so much information in just 30 minutes. Wow this was an amazing tutorial trust me I've done a lot
Big thanks! After long searches without success on the net, I arrived on your site thanks to which I finally managed to understand and implement xlwings.A great moment!!!
Fantastic! Have been wanting to "jump ship" to Python - I can now steadily upgrade and use the best of both worlds! Thanks for the great and easy to follow intro
I was in Python before I got into Excel. I'd rather just run Python as excels backend vs VBA. I write most of my excel sheets using xlxswriter Python library as well.
Installation worked like a charm, thank you. Though I did have to use this method to find the XLSTART folder since I don't know my way around the VBA Editor in Excel 1-Click File > Options. 2-Click Trust Center, and then under Microsoft Office Excel Trust Center, click Trust Center Settings. 3-Click Trusted Locations, and then verify the path to the XLStart folder in the list of trusted locations.
Very useful thanks. Been using VBA in excel for a while now, and wanted to learn another language. This bridges the gap nicely and allows me to apply what I've learnt with VBA to start playing with Python a bit more :)
You are a Magician! Me reading "Hello There" after you pyxld it: "Wow!" Thank you for the content in the description, I have spent 13 minutes watching this video. We're on Sunday, 6PM. Finally I found you!
Thank you..the video was very informative.. looking forward for more such videos..i am a beginner in python and this can be a good starting point..thankyou once again 🙏
This is great - hope there are more to come. Just a quick question.... print(sheet["A10"].Value) returned "Student 9" but this is the value in cell B10 on the example sheet. I'm assuming that wasn't the actual sheet that the Python code was pointing at ? If it was then I'm confused
Awesome video Paul, I am always waiting for video, "VBA Code Run 1000 Times Faster" was amazing, I implemented on my code and my macro super fast now, keep posting, appreciated.. this video motivate me to learn Python.. thanks..
Hey Paul, Brilliant stuff. I just started to learn PY and I have a question if I may... Q1 - when you set the df to the example range (a1:c13), can you set it to named ranges ex. df = sheet.range("myNameRNG").options(pd.DataFrame).value
Paul, thanks for this it is really interesting! i think the environment setup is not so straight forward, at least for me. I had to: reinstall numpy from within vscode update xlwings and conda: "conda update -c conda-forge xlwings" wk.close does not seem to work but wk.close() does seem to work initialising excel if it is not already open is also necessary xw.App (visible=True, add_book=True)
Great video, Thank you. Please I tried to run my xlsm file (with goalseek function) using python and import xlwings, but I have a run time error '1004' reference isn't valid, if I run the xlsm directly without python it works. Please what is the error?
Excellent video, quick question if I may, I ended up watching this video as I am learning Macros for Excel but I find VBA to be archaic and old-fashion in its syntax (not to mention some limitations as not being able to resize both dimensions in a dynamic bi-dimensional array, but only the second one). Also, for me it is a non- transferable skill (where else I am going to use VBA? The question is: Can I use python (and those specific libraries) to achieve the same as I would with VBA, without the need to learn VBA syntax? or I still need to know the VBA syntax and only then do the translation into python? Thank you in advance.
hello & thank you for a wonderful tutorial! i've been fighting with xlwings for about three hours and i can't get the xlwings ribbon to appear in excel 2013. all other parts appear to be working. i'm working from a fresh anaconda install and xlwings v. 0.27.15 which conda installed itself. inside the vba editor, i see and can check xlwings as a reference. it also appears and appears to load correctly as an excel add-in. the only thing that is going wrong is that the ribbon won't appear. is there anything to be done at this point?
Related with selenium: I have an excel or csv file, some cells have NaN value. I want when there's no value (Nan) the driver doesn't fill in the web input(with 'Nan' or nan), just skip it to the next line code instruction.... how can I do that???
Wish you had this for MAC. Very informative but i couldn't get the runPython from VBA too work. I did however get PyCharm and VSCode to reach in take from and give back to Excel
For those who gets "ValueError: Cannot mask with non-boolean array containing NA / NaN values" Error. Please add "na=False" parameter to match function just like following: results = df[df['Class'].str.match('A', na=False)]
Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I did not even know... will be working through this on my project and seeing what gives, thank you so much Maestro. Can this be done on mobile phone, maybe need to run pyhton on colab? Or can my VBA project only be converted easily into an Android app using a PC, or running the python on Colab and Google Drive, on the Chrome browser for android? It would be cool if I could scrape the data and process it, as the VBA does currently, but on android mobile phone as well.
Hi Paul, Newbie question. How can this be shared with other users who doesn’t have python installed? The advantage of using VBA is that distribution of the tool does not need any additional installations. Is there a workaround? Thanks in advance for your response!
I like how this came up as a suggested video while I am sitting here like an idiot that just cut and pasted a column on a filtered 100,000x55 range... I knew I messed up as CTRL+ALT+V V was rolling off my fingers. lol
Thank you for sharing knowledge which is rarely available in CZcams world. Dear sir, I am using Excel in stock market data analysis. It is automated with some VBA and formulas. On daily basis, I need to download 5 sheets (CSV and excel) from one site, need to change the dates at 2-3 places and have to appy some VBA code. Can the above procedure be automated? Currently the above procedure takes 15-20 and then I have to analyse data. If it gives direct results within 5 minutes, then it will be fantastic.
Great video! Thanks so much for the info! It amazes me that only 9% of viewers upvoted it. We know the 91% who didn't upvote likely learned something. (And there are presently no down votes.) We can do better than this. If you learned something from (or enjoyed) a video, let's at least give it a click; it's effortless.

Hello Paul, just a minimal doubt, I have seen that the r and the f are constantly used as (r'somehting here") and (f'things here'), but, what are those stand for?
r for instance allows you to avoid double backslashes in your path (at least in windows) f is to create a string with {data} inside, better than "this" + "+" + variable

How do i string or json from vba to Python for parsing and after parsing python will write the Parsed value to excel sheet. I believe parsing json is easy on python than vba.
Hey Paul @Excelmacromastery ! I have a question and I will be grateful if you will answer :) I'm working with Excel but I don't know how to use VBA, I have some programming basics, but I can barely read VBA code intuitively (maybe 5% of some easy code), now I need to automatize excel files, something like: filter by column AJ values [90%:150%) and copy all the data to the new sheet .. and so on and so on. Also I'll need some UI with options and values input.. what is the best option for me - to start learning VBA or to start learning Python? Thank You in advance!
I try to download the source code from the description but I never got a link emailed to me, is the email link service down? I've tried for a couple of your videos but the download link is never sent.
Followed this tutorial fine testing code in Vscode up until using xlwings where I'm getting an error; Exception has occurred: XlwingsError x Couldn't find any active App! Am I missing something?
Dumb question, what is the performance overhead of having this communication Excel -> VBA Python especially for large datasets and analysis? while it seems very neat, I wonder if this can scale easily also debugging could become significantly more difficult, but I have very little knowledge on VBA
I hope you enjoy this video. Let me know in the comments if you plan to use Python with Excel.

Thanks Paul, that will help me in start xl automation through python
Wow, I do use python and Xls separately, sometimes with Pandas. But here the combination with other libraries open infinite possibilities.
Thanks 🙏👍
Great thanks for this tutorial sir Paul. This is very interesting and very informative.
Thanks so much. I'm newbie . Your explanation quick but we got the point
This is really a very concise and powerful mini-tutorial. Take your time and revise every detail. Thanks Paul K.

You're right. Actually I inserted a column after I recorded that. It did work correctly but the ID column didn't exist when I ran it.
@@Excelmacromastery Cheers - I thought so
Glad I read the comments and I'm glad you asked this question.

Great video.
This kind of teaching is addictive
Splendid!
Nice video, thanks, I learned a lot.
Tip: maybe there is a wrong image in 11:05. You may had removed ID column in file and used an older image.
Yes, you are right.
Can't wait

Is there any pip install command for that?
Thank you!
I have to postpone the babysitting job for 30 minutes just to watch and like this lol. Awesome!

Hi Tom. Video was made in Danang😀.
Wonderful
Paul, thanks for this it is really interesting!
i think the environment setup is not so straight forward, at least for me.
I had to:
reinstall numpy from within vscode
update xlwings and conda:
"conda update -c conda-forge xlwings"
wk.close does not seem to work but wk.close() does seem to work
initialising excel if it is not already open is also necessary
xw.App (visible=True, add_book=True)
Could you please share a comparision video on efficiency of these tools.
Awesome video..... how to use msgbox in python, to interact with user. error handling etc.
Thank you
