load_workbook() got an unexpected keyword argument 'data_only'

[ytp...@gmail.com]

My small python script contains the following statement:

workbook = load_workbook(excelFile, data_only=True)

This statement results following error when executed in ubuntu 14.04:

TypeError: load_workbook() got an unexpected keyword argument 'data_only'

I have to do workbook = load_workbook(excelFile, True) instead.

Here are my openpyxl and python versions:

guest@ca-ivs2:~$ dpkg -s python-openpyxl
Package: python-openpyxl
Status: install ok installed
Priority: optional
Section: python
Installed-Size: 499

Description: module to read/write OpenXML xlsx/xlsm files
 Openpyxl is a pure Python module to read/write Excel 2007 (OpenXML)
 xlsx/xlsm files.
Original-Maintainer: NeuroDebian Team <te...@neuro.debian.net>
Homepage: http://bitbucket.org/ericgazoni/openpyxl/

guest@ca-ivs2:~$ python --version
Python 2.7.6

Interestingly, I have another ubuntu 14.04 machine with same version of python and openpyxl installed, and the statement works fine.
Can someone tell me what might be the reason or what should I check?
Thanks!

This is a very old version of openpyxl and doesn't support the "data_only"
keyword.

Thanks for the response, Charlie. I'll upgrade the openpyxl version to solve this problem.
Still, my main question is: the same script works fine in another ubuntu running the same version of openpyxl and python, Any idea what could cause the difference?

Only that that can't be the case. FWIW I strongly recommend not using the
system Python on Ubuntu for anything. At the very least setup a virtual
environment for your projects.
