How to Convert Spreadsheets
- 1). Logon to your computer and open your spreadsheet program. Open the spreadsheet you want to convert.
- 2). Enter the data you want to use in your spreadsheet. Be sure that the first row of the spreadsheet contains the column headings you plan to use in the converted file. Having the column headings in place makes it easier for those importing the data to identify the various fields.
- 3). Click the "File" menu and choose "Save As" from the menu. Click the drop-down box next to "Save as type" and choose the appropriate format from the menu. Saving the spreadsheet as a comma separated value, or CSV file, allows it to be imported into a variety of programs. You can also save the spreadsheet to other formats, so be sure to find out which format is most appropriate before you begin.
