Pro Tips for CSV Viewing

Check Your Delimiter

If all data appears in one column, your file likely uses a different delimiter. Try semicolon for European CSVs.

Use UTF-8 First

Most modern CSV files use UTF-8 encoding. Only switch to Latin-1 if you see garbled characters.

Sort to Find Issues

Sort columns to quickly spot data issues - empty values, outliers, or formatting problems cluster together.

Copy Selected Data

Select specific rows and copy just that data to clipboard. Useful for extracting subsets of your data.

Frequently Asked Questions

CSV (Comma Separated Values) is a simple text format for storing tabular data. Each line is a row, and values are separated by commas. It's widely used for data exchange between applications.
We support comma (,), semicolon (;), tab, and pipe (|) delimiters. European CSVs often use semicolons since commas are used for decimals in those regions.
You can view CSV files up to 50MB. For very large files, we use pagination to keep performance smooth. All processing happens in your browser.
Yes, click on any cell to edit its value. Your changes stay in the browser until you export. The original file is never modified.
UTF-8 encoding handles most international characters. If you see garbled text, try Latin-1 encoding. We properly handle quoted fields with commas inside.
Yes! Click any column header to sort ascending/descending. Numeric columns sort numerically, text columns sort alphabetically.
Absolutely. Your CSV file is processed entirely in your browser. It's never uploaded to our servers. All data stays on your device.
Usually a delimiter mismatch. If your data appears in one column, try changing the delimiter setting. Some CSVs use semicolons instead of commas.
This tool is for CSV files specifically. For Excel (.xlsx, .xls) files, use our Excel Viewer tool which handles the Excel format.
Set 'First Row is Header' to No. We'll generate column names (A, B, C...) and treat all rows as data.
