title: Data append to list using XLRD
body: <p>I am able to import data of rows in a particular column of certain sheet name in to a python list. But, the list is looking like <code>Key:Value</code> formatted list (not the one I need). </p>
  
  <p>Here is my code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>import xlrd
  
  excelList = []
  
  def xcel(path):
      book = xlrd.open_workbook(path)
      impacted_files = book.sheet_by_index(2)
      for row_index in range(2, impacted_files.nrows):
          #if impacted_files.row_values(row_index) == 'LCR':
          excelList.append(impacted_files.cell(row_index, 1))
      print(excelList)
  
  if __name__ == "__main__":
      xcel(path)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The output is like below:</p>
  
  <pre><code>[text:'LCR_ContractualOutflowsMaster.aspx', text:'LCR_CountryMaster.aspx', text:'LCR_CountryMasterChecker.aspx', text:'LCR_EntityMaster.aspx', text:'LCR_EntityMasterChecker.aspx', text:'LCR_EscalationMatrixMaster.aspx',....]
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I want the list to have just values. Like this...</p>
  
  <pre><code>['LCR_ContractualOutflowsMaster.aspx', 'LCR_CountryMaster.aspx', 'LCR_CountryMasterChecker.aspx', 'LCR_EntityMaster.aspx', 'LCR_EntityMasterChecker.aspx', 'LCR_EscalationMatrixMaster.aspx',...]
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I've tried pandas too (<code>df.value.tolist()</code> method). Yet the output is not what I visualize. </p>
  
  <p>Please suggest a way.</p>
  
  <p>Regards</p>
