Index error when reading table #732
Description
I need to read data from the table in docx, but the loop raises IndexError. I tried to use iter_unique_cells method that i found, but it didnt solve the problem.Any help would be greatly appreciated !
another_broken_table.docx
def iter_unique_cells(row):
"""Generate cells in *row* skipping empty grid cells."""
prior_tc = None
for cell in row.cells:
this_tc = cell._tc
if this_tc is prior_tc:
continue
prior_tc = this_tc
yield cell
document = Document('another_broken_table.docx')
tables = document.tables
for table in tables:
for row in table.rows:
for cell in iter_unique_cells(row):
pass
