As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.

FYI, I've used this example in my presentations about Python. Here's the
code when using ibm_db_dbi:
As far as I'm concerned, that's the canonical form for a quick dump of
a table to a workbook.
It's possible it could be made even simpler in handling the headers, but
the code fits on one slide, so I didn't work any harder (plus it shows off
the enumerate() function in Python).
I don't see anything simpler. You could save one line by getting rid
of "headers" as a temporary variable, but to me that's not a good
trade because then you create a longer, more complicated line later.
Other attempts to shave lines also increase complexity.
"Fits on a slide" (without artificial line breaks) is actually quite a
good heuristic to use when deciding whether a chunk of Python code is
suitably simple.
