    Is there a alternative way to search for words in .csv files without microsoft office


    Okay so I remember when I had microsoft word and excel it gave me this really cool feature that allows me to search for word context inside files without actually opening it. It goes like thisMore particularly this was useful for me when I'm examining my discord data in the messages folder which contains all messages I ever sent on discord and sometimes I would use my data to reconnect with people I lost contact with.

    CSV files used to open in Excel....not now!

    Hi, you say Excel is installed. Does it run normally?

    You can't find Excel in (an unspecified) list of applications. I don't know which list that is for sure.

    For example, in the list related to:
    - rt click a file. Open With
    - this list:

    - this list:

    Is there a alternative way to search for words in .csv files without microsoft office [​IMG]


    - some other list...

    If Excel does not appear in the above, I suggest you repair your office installation.

    Maybe the above gives you some ideas. Otherwise please post a screenshot of where you think you should see it but don't. Thanks.

    Is there a alternative way to search for words in .csv files without microsoft office

    microsoft word 2003

    Is it just one file, or all your word files?

    With the exception of Outlook, I have yet to find a reason to stop using Office 2000, 2003, and 2007. They open all the latest files just fine, and they work just fine.
