About Sheet to CSV

Sheet to CSV converts the first worksheet of an Excel (XLSX or XLS) or OpenDocument (ODS) file, or a TSV, into comma-separated values. CSV is the format almost every database, import tool and script accepts. Cells are written as they're displayed, with formulas replaced by their calculated results.

When it helps

  • Importing an Excel contact list into a CRM, email platform or database
  • Preparing spreadsheet data for a Python, R or command-line script
  • Converting a TSV export into comma-separated format for a tool that only accepts CSV

Tips

  • Only the first sheet is exported. Move the sheet you need to the first position, or save it as its own file, before converting.
  • Formatting, charts, comments and multiple sheets can't exist in CSV. Formulas become their last calculated values.
  • For merged cells, the value appears only in the first cell of the merged area, and the rest are empty.
