Version 2003 and Prior: 1. Select from dropdown: Data; Import External Data; Import Data… 2. Navigate and select the file to import (make sure "Files of type:" is listed as "All Data Sources"), 3.

Reading CSV files that have embedded double quotes, commas and can include embedded line breaks is a complicated concept. I have chosen to write a regex pattern that can handle parsing the fields of a CSV with all those conditions. There are plenty of other examples of CSV parsers around, but none seem to do the trick I was looking for, which is grandly frustrating when Excel can import and export a CSV with all the listed nuances quickly and easily. So, not finding a good solution, I have written a short CSV parsing pattern. It is below. CSV-parser ^(("(?:[^"]|"")*"|[^,]*)(,("(?:[^"]|"")*"|[^,]*))*)$ Options (turned on in your language/utility): ^ and $ match at line breaks Description: below is a textual description of the regex pattern that may be helpful to programmers who want to understand what is happening in the regex. You can find all the details on this at the blog to which this was originally posted at: http://www.kimgentes.com/worshiptech-web-tools-page/2008/10/14/regex-pattern-for-parsing-csv-files-with-embedded-commas-dou.html

If document means workbook, you open it the same way you open a file with any other Windows or MAC program. If document means a word processing file or some other file, it would depend on the type of document you are trying to open.
(If this does not answer your question, ask again with more specific words indicating exactly what you want to know.)
File > Open then click on the filename you want to open.
Excel has no relation to Active Directory. If you have permission to import, you should be able to import directly from a CSV file, and not have to import into Excel first. Check with your systems or network administrator to see how your specific network Active Directory is configured.
Open the file, go to the File... Save As menu and select CSV (comma separated values) as the file type. Open your address book, go to the Edit... Import menu and navigate to your .csv file.
From within Excel, File Menu>Save As>Save As Type>CSV
Use the Save As facility and pick the CSV option.
A good way is to export from a database is to save as CSV format (or some sort of comma-delimited text format), then open Excel and import the file into Excel.
You would have to open it in Excel and see what happens.
create a Word table, Select the entire table and Copy, paste into an Excel doc, save Excel doc as .csv
I don't think there is a direct way, but some websites offer something very close to that (copy and paste from Excel Spreadsheet or Save as CSV and import).
Importing contacts by CSVShare Comment You can import your address books (from Outlook, Hotmail, Yahoo!, orkut, and other services) into Gmail. Importing your contacts isn't difficult. To get started, follow these steps:First, you'll need to format your contacts as a CSV file -- often times, address books exported from other mail providers are already formatted as CSV files. You can also create your own CSV file or save an excel file as a CSV.Once you have a CSV file with all your contacts' information, import the file and transfer your contacts to Gmail by clicking on "More Actions" button on the contacts page, then click on "Import".Note that you can only import up to 3,000 contacts at a time. If you have more than 3,000 contacts, you'll need to create multiple CSV files to upload.
To convert a PST of MS Outlook into CSV (Comma Separated Value) format, you can use Import and Export feature of MS Outlook. This will help you eport all the data from a .pst file to a new CSV file and you can save this new file with any name at any location.
CSV is a Comma Separated Variable file. These are simple text files with data in lines and text separated by commas. They are used as ways of storing data so it can be imported from one application to another. A CSV file could be created in Excel and then opened in a database such as Access. Each line would be a record and where each comma would be it would start a new field. Coming from Excel, each comma would have been created from the division of each cell, so data could be taken from Access, put into a CSV format and transferred to Excel and many applications. So CSV files are not limited to Excel.
Once you have the data in Excel, it no longer is a CSV file, it is an Excel worksheet. To add more data, click in the cell where you want to start adding your new data. Go to the Data tab (Excel 2007). In the Get External Data section, click on the "From Other Sources" option and select "From Data Connection Wizard." Follow the directions in the wizard to import your data at the cell where you want to add the new data. See related links for an example using text data.
