The error message reads: query = query % db.literal(args) TypeError: not all arguments converted during string formatting So it still isn't working. Does anybody know why there is a type error now? END UPDATE I have a large mailing list in .xls format. I am using python with xlrd to retrieve the name and email from the xls file into two lists. Now I want to put each name and email into a mysql database. I'm using MySQLdb for this part.
