Excel: Apply formating of a sheet(file1) to another sheet(file2) - lowermoon - May-26-2020
Hello!
Does python offers the possibility of applying the formatting style from a sheet (from file1) to another sheet(from file2). I would like to this without opening the file and just apply the "format painter" or without trying using macros or VBA s.
This can be done by python or do I need to install additional plugins/add-ons?

There are plenty of packages to work with excel files. It may depend on file format - xls or xlsx.
For example - relevant section in openpyxl documentation - Working with styles
