> Hi List,
> 
> I uploaded a new version of the xytools plugin. After some questions and
> discussion on the list about Excel files, I added simple capability to
> open and save excel files.
> 
> It uses the python xlw and xlrd libs for that
> (http://www.python-excel.org/). Those are available for windows users in
> the osgeo4w package. Linux users can probably get it from there package
> manager. If all fails, go to http://www.python-excel.org/ and get it
> from there.
> 
> In short: it can save the attributes of a vector layer to a simple (one
> worksheet containing) xls file.
> It can open an xls file and load it in a memory layer. You can either
> point to an x and y column, and those values will be used for the x and
> y of the Point features. Or you can cancel choosing the x and y, and the
> attribute data will just be loaded taking 0/0 as x and y coordinates.
> 
> There is a help file availabe via the xytools plugin menu with more
> information.
> 
> Let me know if you find problems with it or have ideas to improve (see
> docs for earlier ideas).
