Opening .csv Files in Microsoft Excel

After you have downloaded a .csv file, you can open it in Microsoft Excel. You may be able to double-click on the file. Try this:

  1. Double click the .csv file that you downloaded from the internet.
  2. Wait a few seconds and the file is opened.

If that doesn’t work, you will have to open the file from within Microsoft Excel:

  1. Start the Microsoft Excel program by clicking on its icon.
  2. Select the “File” menu and click on “Open.”
  3. Navigate to your “Downloads” directory.
  4. Click on the .csv file in the dialog and click the “Open” button.
