In your Excel workbook, switch to the File tab, and then click Save As. Alternatively, you can press F12 to open the same Save As dialog.
In the Save as type box, choose to save your Excel file as CSV (Comma delimited).

Reformatting/restructuring/filtering data in existing Excel file and appending/editing to a designated format of another existing excel file

I have a Excel report that I want it to be reformatted, restructured, and filtered into a specific Excel format.
The original Excel report shows repetition of 2 columns per 11 rows like the example below:
row1 : var1 |var2|var3 |(Empty)|var5|var6|var7|var8 |var9|(Empty)|var11|
row2 : (Empty)|var2|(Empty)|var4 |var5|var6|var7|(Empty)|var9|var10 |var11|
I have a designated list of row1:var1 variables and first I need to filter the other data out.
Next I need to filter out the data that I need, which is row1:var1, row2:var2, row1:var7, row2:var10, row1:var11. Then I need to use these data and create them into a row and compare and fix the existing excel file with the designated format according to row1:var1 variable.
For example, if "john" is a common person in both of the excel files(as in row1:var1) but if "john" in my Excel file have different properties(as in all the cell data I need except for row1:var1), I would like to update those properties with the properties of the reporting Excel file.
I have no clue where to start and I would greatly appreciate it if someone can help me out, even a little guidance.
Thank you ahead of the response.

How to save a number starting with + and has a - in the middle in a .csv file

I want to insert data to a .csv file in order to keep it formatted similar to the example as follows:
+555-55555555
+197-15464875
My .csv file's content:
13,John,Senior,"+555-55555555",20,IT Department
12,Matt,Junior,"+197-15464875",20,Finance
What I get in excel for the numbers respectively:
-55555000
-15464678
Excel assumes that these values are 'numbers' but i want them to be strings. Anyone has any clue?

Excel 2013: Automatic data update from external URL

I have a webservice which continuously generate/update a csv file which can be downloaded externally. I would like to use an Excel file to continuously get the content of the csv file, and do calculation and visualization accordingly.
e.g.
my csv file contains 4 rows, 3 columns.
In an Excel sheet, A1:C4 are used to store the contents of the csv file. A5:C5 are the average of each column. And a bar chart of the contents in each column is displayed in A5.
How can I ask the Excel to download the csv file by specifying its URL, and store in A1:C4? And how to make it automatically update its contents when the csv file is updated?

Move data from Excel to Word and reformat it

is there a way to move the data from an excel sheet to a word document and reformat it. I'd like the data in the first column to be formatted as 'Heading1' and the data in the second column to be formatted as 'Normal'.
So that every row results in a header and a content, but without a table itself.
Depending on the Office file formats, you may be able to do an XML XSLT transform.

Different results exporting to CSV or Excel

I have a simple report that I want to export to a CSV file. There is only the detail line that is grouped by one field, no group header, and a group footer for totals. The problem is when I export to CSV format, the total row for a group is listed in front of every record?
If I export to Excel and then save as a CSV file, the total row is where it belongs. However one field is spread across 3 columns then those columns are "merged and centered" which adds two commas in the middle of the line. And one column is added at the beginning of the record and two at the end of the record, for 3 more extra commas.
It would be easy enough to write a macro to "clean up" the spread sheet and export as a csv file for my end users. However corporate "insecurity" will not allow the end users to have macros.
Any help, suggestions, pointers to where else to look greatly appreciated.
cheers

The CSV generated by any standard reporting tool does a flat data structure and hence would repeat all data set.
The XLS generated by the reproting tools are typically to be opened in the XLS and its XLS default behaviour to put additional commas for every merged cell.
The best way is to create a report with a layout that has equal data length columns even for the header, ie while formatting the report do not put the header in the center with larger lenght, bold and italics etc, put it as the first column and match the lenght with the data in the detail record.
This way you would be able to create a report that does not look presentable in XLS but would give you required data in the CSV
