The Text Import Wizard will open and you will go through the steps described above. Opening the File on a Mac If you are using Mac OSX, you'll need to open Excel first and then go to the Data menu and select - Import External Data - Import Data. You will be able follow the wizard from then on to format the data correctly. Microsoft Excel is a software program used to create spreadsheets. Can I import data from other than the first sheet in an Excel file? The Import Wizard will, by default, import data from the first sheet in the Excel file. If your data is on another sheet, you will need to select in the Import Wizard the name of the sheet you want to use. Instead, we’ll choose better options in the Text Import Wizard. Right-click on the data and select Edit Text Import. Next, double-click on the file IdealGasPropertyData.txt. This time, instead of the Delimited option, choose Fixed width. Excel will automatically determine where the columns should be, and places break lines as.

Working with CSV files in Microsoft Excel

When using Microsoft® Excel® to handle CSV files for use with BEACON, do not simply open the file by double-clicking it. Instead, use the Data>From Text function (Windows) or the File>Import function (Mac OS) to bring the CSV file into Excel. This helps preserve the fidelity of your data.

When using this method, an Import Wizard lets you choose a delimiter and determine how to treat data such as numbers and dates in your file. Setting all data to Text prevents large numbers from being displayed as floating point values, leading and trailing zeros from being dropped and dates from being displayed in non-ISO-compliant formats.

IMPORTANT! When bringing Data Exchange files into BEACON on a regular basis, it is essential that data fidelity be maintained between imports. For example, if you open a file in Excel by double-clicking it, Excel will remove leading or trailing zeros on any field that uses them. While that might not seem important for Register Resolution settings like 0.01, it is critical for Account IDs, Location IDs and Meter IDs such as 000123456. To BEACON, Account ID 123456 and Account ID 000123456 represent two different accounts. If one import includes leading zeros and a future import doesn’t, meter data will be routed incorrectly. This effect can be amplified if different tools are used to handle CSV-format Data Exchange files. For example, this online CSV viewer and editor will not drop leading or trailing zeros, where Excel can and will if used incorrectly.

  1. I'm using Excel 2010 and importing by either right-clicking on the csv and selecting Open with Excel or by using the text import wizard in Excel. – LM6 Mar 8 '17 at 21:36 By using the text import wizard in Excel, I assume you are setting up a connection from the Data tab. Problem with this file is that the separator is comma + space.
  2. You can directly copy text data from the file to excel and use the Text to Column feature to convert in columns and rows format. Let’s see how to use the Text to Column feature available in Microsoft Excel to import delimited data. Open Blank workbook in excel. Highlight column A1 and past all content of the text file in that single cell.

As a result, pay close attention to warnings generated by the system synchronization process.
