    if i have a big comma text delimited file

    Hi Beejay.

    Is the text file comma delimited already?

    If so,

    Open Windows File Explorer

    On the view ribbon, check the box marked 'File name extensions'

    Then go back to that file and change the file extension from txt to csv

    Then just double click that file to open it in Excel

    If the file does not open in Excel, there may be something wrong with the comma delimiting - where did the file originate?

    how to convert a text file to excel

    Hi Barbara,

    Generally the text file must be delimited by commas and saved as a csv file. This will automatically import into Excel . . .

    If it is just a straight text file, it might be a bit more difficult!

    If the file is not delimited by commas, can you please provide a sample of the first 2 lines of the file in order for us to provide further advice . . .
