Thanks to Thomas Kluyver to the commits. - Removed vestiges of support for pickleable Book objects. This hasn't worked for some time, so the options to support it have gone. If you find any problems, please ask about them on the python-excel@googlegroups.com list, or submit an issue on GitHub: https://github.com/python-excel/xlrd/issues Full details of all things Python and Excel related can be found here: http://www.python-excel.org/ cheers, Chris -- Simplistix - Content Management, Batch Processing & Python Consulting - http://www.simplistix.co.uk
