I am currently creating a script to automate the treatment of some Excel files. I am working on Excel (.xlsx) files and modifying them with the library Pandas. I need to get the creation date of one of those files so I can insert it into another file and I don't have the slightest clue on how to proceed.

I am currently using Python 3.3.5, Pandas 0.15.2 and I can't use any library not currently in Spyder (I work in a big company where we aren't allowed to update versions or to install anything not approved first and approving something takes months)

UPDATE: 2022-07-29

This is not a duplicate as it explicitly mentions the creation date of an Excel file. This info is metadata inside the Excel file and not shown in the OS file creation data.

    I'm voting to close this question as off-topic because solution and the answer to the question could be easily found by googling for simple tutorial on python and files management. – Artem Barger Jul 12 '17 at 07:17
