[Python] A code that is working on a jupyter notebook but not on a python file after a copy...

I have a code that works fine in an .ipynb but when I copy/paste it on a .py file, in the exact same folder, it does not find a dependent file.

The code line that is giving me an error of file not found, is this one.

excel_file_path = "Excel_file.xlsx"

dataframe = pd.read_excel(excel_file_path, sheet_name = "sheet_23")


It runs fine in the jupyter notebook, but it gives me the following in the .py file.

" FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'Excel_file.xlsx' "

Thanks for the help.
