I try to use comprehensions when I am learning Python. After opening a word document, i try to read the 2nd column of a table for each row. I print out the words as follows:
 
for row in range(1,len(self.doc.Tables(1).Rows)+1):
   for word in str(self.doc.Tables(1).Cell(row,2)).split():
      if word not in stopwords:
         print word
 
But I get a runtime error when I have the following code:
 
content = [[word for word in str(self.doc.Tables(1).Cell(row,2).split()) if word not in stopwords]
for row in range(1,len(self.doc.Tables(1).Rows)+1)]
 
The error is as follows:
 
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "J:\MyProjects\Python\VectorSpaceTry\src\ReadCorpus.py", line 111, in <module>
array.setup()
File "J:\MyProjects\Python\VectorSpaceTry\src\ReadCorpus.py", line 79, in setup
for row in range(1,len(self.doc.Tables(1).Rows)+1)
File "F:\Softwares\Working\Languages\Python27\lib\site-packages\win32com\client\__init__.py", line 465, in __getattr__
raise AttributeError("'%s' object has no attribute '%s'" % (repr(self), attr))
AttributeError: '<win32com.gen_py.Microsoft Word 14.0 Object Library.Cell instance at 0x51383312>' object has no attribute 'split'
 
what is wrong with my code? Thanks.
