If you can do it manually using the Excel 2003 user interface, then there’s some chance of doing it with current
xlwt, or makingxlwtdo it. Please edit your question to show what keyboard/mouse actions are required.If you can’t do it manually, then
xlwtdefinitely can’t do it either. Have you explored all the cell formatting possibilities? What is the underlying user requirement? Would it be satisfied by a link to a web page?See relevant SO question here.
By the way: (1) I’m the maintainer of
xlwt. (2) Consider asking questions on the python-excel forum (see http://www.python-excel.org) … they are likely to be answered faster than here.
