uzuria Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 Hi guys! I'm developing an excel spreadsheet for an easy populate import, but am having a problem. When I save it as tab delimited, the table messes up and some cells become distorted. I think this is due to product descriptions with paragraph gaps, but I'm not sure. But basically I end up with big gaps in my table and the products don't match up any more. Does anyone know how I can solve this problem? It works when I save it as a .csv file but not .txt :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PD_Steve Posted June 24, 2007 Share Posted June 24, 2007 .csv and .txt are basically the same thing. Save as .csv and rename to .txt and upload :). CSV just means comma seperated values and is a text file with commas seperating the fields in pretty much the same way the text file would.
