Save open excel file using python

Question

How do I save an open excel file using python= I currently read the excel workbook using XLRD but I need to save the excel file so any changes the user inputs are read.

I have done this using a VBA script from within excel which saves the workbook every x seconds, but this is not ideal.

Answer 1

How about using xlwt?
