Error: Using Search Cursor on XLS File

$

0
I am trying to cursor search through a .xls file using
Code:

arcpy.SearchCursor
My code is this:
Code:

xls = r"\\spatialfiles.work\Local\scripts\python\Excel\Report.xls\'Dataset selection$'"

for row in arcpy.SearchCursor(xls):
    print row.getValue("Layer")

I'm baffled. Yesterday this code worked fine. Today I am getting an error:

Quote:

IOError: "\\spatialfiles.work\Local\scripts\python\Excel\Report.xls\'Dataset selection$'"
does not exist
The xls file does exist. I can navigate to it in ArcCataloge without issue and view the table. The path is correct because I copied and pasted it right out of Catalogue.

Can anyone suggest why this is occuring?


Thanks,
Mike
