Can you be a little more specific?

Are you using Spreadsheet_Excel_Writer?
What exactly does the error message say?

If you follow the examples in the documentation it should work fine.

Try saving and opening the output with a text editor. There could be
some error messages printing out. This may be one reason why Excel
would then deem the output as a bad file.

Do you log your errors instead of displaying them?
