Best Answer

use this code to convert and save it to a file

import base64

f = open("/path/to/file/spreadsheet.xls", "wb")
f.write(self.filedata.decode('base64'))

# f.read()

f.close()

Another problem: shall I write the modified data back into a new Excel file?

Assuming you mean to modify your excel file (Binary data),

after modifying, you will need to reassign the excel file to your field, or you can do this through the UI itself.
