CSV Format

A CSV (Comma Separated Variables) file is a formatted text file with a header row to specify the field names. For example:

name,email,product,purchasedate John Doe,jdoe@somewhere.com,Email Marketer Personal Edition,05/02/04 William Doe,wdoe@somewhere.com,Email Marketer Business Edition,01/06/04

Most popular applications, including Microsoft Outlook, Microsoft Excel, Microsoft Access, and Database systems, support CSV format exporting.
