Export into csv doesn't work

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 59

Hi :)

I have some weird problem, I using this for export data into csv and it doesn't work properly. It generates csv file with coma separated values but excel sees it like ordinary file, it displays like this:

0,"item name"        
1,"item name"
2,"item name"

instead of this:

0 item name
1 item name
2 item name

I tried to generate csv file in excel, open it in notepad++ and copy to x++ generated file and it also displays wrong so I assume that is problem with file properties but i don't know how to solve this.

Can somebody, please, tell me what I am doing wrong?

    By default Excel understands semicolon ";" but this can be changed in Excel: support.office.com/.../import-or-export-text-txt-or-csv-files-5250ac4c-663c-47ce-937b-339e391393ba

    I tried with semicolon, actually, like I wrote above, I even copied content from excel generated file to x++ generated file and it doesn't work.

    This thread seems to have a wrong title. It seems that export to CSV works fine and your actual problem is in opening the file in Excel.

    I suggest you use Data > From Text/CSV in Excel to import the data.
