openpyxl error

[RajeshPatnaik]

Hello,

ArcGIS Pro version: 3.0.0

openpyxl version: 3.0.9

I am trying to create an excel and edit it.

import openpyxl
layer = r"F:\Learning\Area.shp"
desc = arcpy.Describe(layer)
path = desc.path
target = path + '/' + 'CA.xlsx'
wb = openpyxl.Workbook(target)
wb.save(target)
ws = wb.active
ws.title = 'MySheet'

It is working fine till this line of code. Then when I try to save it again, it throws an error.

wb.save(target)

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
File "C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\ESRI\conda\envs\arcgispro-py3-clone\lib\site-packages\openpyxl\workbook\workbook.py", line 407, in save

st = os.stat(filename)
FileNotFoundError: [WinError 2] The system cannot find the file specified: 'C:\\Users\\user\\AppData\\Local\\Temp\\ArcGISProTemp24588\\openpyxl.xhbljeyb'

Why am I getting this error when trying to save a second time??

I had a similar problem working with pandas creating an excel file based on an attribute table. It created the excel file but just running and running. Seeing that you had a such a similar issue makes me want to try without saving.

I solved the issue by uninstalling 3.0 and reinstalling 2.9

Thanks @dabrooks for your reply

I tried by uninstalling 3.0 and reinstalling 2.9. The issue was not solved.

After lot of search, I came to know that once we save our created workbook, we can not write again to it. So, I did as follows and it works.

import openpyxl
layer = r"F:\Learning\Area.shp"
desc = arcpy.Describe(layer)
path = desc.path
target = path + '/' + 'CA.xlsx'
wb = openpyxl.Workbook()
ws = wb.active
ws.title = 'MySheet'
#write here whatever needed

#save at the end
wb.save(target)

The Python "ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'openpyxl'" occurs when we forget to install the openpyxl module before importing it or install it in an incorrect environment. To solve the error, install the module by running the pip install openpyxl command.

This may help you,
