[Qgis-user] Use excel spreadsheets for join to vector data

[Pietro Rossin]

Hello all
I realized that with python-xlrd and python-xlwt installed with osgeo4w on
windows xp I can load excel data in qgis as is for csv data (add vector).
The sheet1 is loaded and first line is usually used as field name.
This is what happens in Window$, I tried to install these two packages in
ubuntu but in this OS Excel isn't loaded in qgis...
Does someone has any idea on any possible solution??
It would be nice to load freeoffice/openoffice spreadsheets without the
passage trough csv..

Thanks
Pietro
