About CSV ↔ Excel Converter
CSV ↔ Excel Converter turns CSV data into an Excel .xlsx workbook and exports any worksheet of an .xlsx file as CSV. It detects the delimiter and header row, shows a table preview, and handles Unicode, quoted fields, embedded commas and line breaks. Files are read and written in your browser without uploading.
CSV is the common exchange format for data, while Excel is where people sort, filter and share it. Opening CSV directly in Excel can split columns incorrectly or drop leading zeros. Converting with a preview lets you check the result first and keep values intact.
Step by step
- Choose CSV → Excel or Excel → CSV.
- For CSV → Excel, upload a CSV file or paste CSV text.
- Check the detected delimiter and header row, and change them if needed.
- Review the table preview and any notes about the data.
- Press Download .xlsx to save the workbook.
- For Excel → CSV, upload an .xlsx file, choose a worksheet and delimiter, then press Download CSV.
