Open a CSV file in your browser

A CSV viewer shows spreadsheet data as a table without Excel. Paste CSV or a Google Sheets export and scan columns. The whole paste is parsed in memory. The table only draws a cap of rows so the page stays cheap. Counts at the top include every row.

Examples

Valid - Normal table
a,b
1,2
3,4
Valid - Ragged row
a,b
1
2,3,4
Invalid - Broken quotes
a,b
"1,2

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I open a CSV file online without Excel?

Yes. This CSV viewer shows the file as a table in your browser. Nothing is uploaded.

Can I edit cells?

This is a viewer. Copy the CSV, edit in a sheet, paste again.

Why only 250 rows on screen?

Rendering tens of thousands of DOM cells is slow. The parse still includes every row for counts and download.

Tips

  • If columns look shifted, the delimiter is probably wrong. Try the delimiter tool.
  • A leading sep=, line from Excel is not a standard header. Remove it.
