Note
In a CSV-formatted file, each line (or row) of data in the file con-
sists of one record, and each field of the record is separated by com-
mas. CSV files can easily be transferred into spreadsheet and
database applications.
Note
You must include the
.csv
extension in the file name. If “.csv” is left
off the file name it
will not
be automatically added.
Figure 23. Save dialog
A faster way of specifying the directory path than typing it out is to click on the
Browse
button, which displays
the Save dialog (see
figure 23
). Select the directory where you want the file saved, then type the file name in the
File Name box. If you are saving a file for the first time, type the name of the new file, or—if you are overwrit-
ing an existing file—click on a previously saved file to overwrite.
Click the
Save
button to to complete the save operation or click the
Cancel
button to cancel without saving.
There will be no warning if you type a file name that is the same
as a file name already in the directory; so unless you want to
overwrite an existing file, make sure the name you choose isn’t
in the directory! You will not be able to recover a file overwritten
by mistake.
