Description
Hey, we are using xlsx2csv to import sheets and it generally works fine.
Recently, while trying to upload a specific sheet we got the following error:
File "/home/rof/.pyenv/versions/2.7.16/bin/xlsx2csv", line 817, in handleCharData
eprint("Error: potential invalid date format.")
NameError: global name 'eprint' is not defined
We moved the eprint method at the top of the file, and the script worked with only a warning as I assume was intended, but I am not sure if that is a correct solution?
thanks

Start at the xlsx2csv entry point and the handleCharData function around line 817, then trace where eprint is defined and available. Reproduce the invalid-date warning and confirm the command reports the warning without raising a NameError.
