CSV File Format

CSV stands for Comma Separated Values, sometimes also called Comma Delimited. A CSV file is a specially formatted plain text file which stores basic database-style information in a very simple format, with one record on each line, and each field within that record is encapsulated by quotes and separated by a comma. A sample is below:

"0", "0", "Payer Name", ....

Creating a CSV file from spreadsheet data is very simple to do using Microsoft Excel.

  1. Open your spreadsheet document and go to the File pull-down menu and choose Save As....
  2. Change the "Save as type" or "Format" field to read: "CSV (Comma delimited)".
  3. Enter a name for the document and click Save.
  4. To check the validity of your CSV file, open the new file from a plain-text reading program such as Notepad.
