The CSV format

03What it reads
Good to know
- All pages go into one table by default; with one sheet per page, a blank line separates the pages
- Codes with leading zeros, such as 000123, stay exactly as printed
- Text that starts with =, +, - or @ gets an apostrophe, so spreadsheets never run it as a formula
- Need bold headers, number formats and filters? Download Excel instead
