Key Features & Specifications

Batch Conversion of Multiple Files and Sheets

Convert multiple Excel workbooks and all worksheets inside a workbook into separate CSV files in one operation, eliminating the need to save sheets one by one in Excel.

Sheet Name Filtering

Type a keyword into the filter box to extract and download only matching worksheets from multi-sheet workbooks.

Preserves Displayed Formats & Strips Number Commas

Dates, zero-padded numbers, and percentages are exported as displayed in Excel, while thousand-separator commas in numbers are removed for clean data imports.

UTF-8 with BOM Output & Automatic Quote Escaping

Files are exported in UTF-8 with BOM (CRLF line breaks) to prevent garbled characters when opened in Excel or text editors, with automatic double-quote escaping for cells containing commas or line breaks.

Extracts Calculated Formula & HYPERLINK Values

Cells containing formulas output their calculated results, and HYPERLINK cells output their display text or target URL.

100% Client-Side Browser Processing

File parsing, CSV conversion, and ZIP archiving run entirely inside your browser. Your files are never uploaded to an external server.

Common Use Cases

Exporting Multi-Sheet Workbooks into Separate CSVs

Split an Excel workbook containing multiple worksheets into individual CSV files at once, or filter specific sheet names to export.

Preparing Comma-Delimited CSVs for System & Database Imports

Generate standard comma-separated CSV files that retain leading zeros and date formats while stripping thousand separators from numeric values.

Batch Converting Files Without Python or PowerShell Scripts

Convert multiple Excel files in bulk by dragging and dropping them into your browser without writing command-line scripts, VBA macros, or installing software.

Previewing & Extracting CSVs Without Opening Excel

Inspect worksheet contents and export CSV files on PC, Mac, iPad, or smartphones even when Microsoft Excel is not installed.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Are my Excel files uploaded or saved on a server?
No. Files are never sent to an external server; all reading, conversion, and ZIP compression happen locally in your browser.
Will special characters or non-English text become garbled?
No. All CSV files are output in UTF-8 with BOM, preventing character encoding issues when opened directly in Excel on Windows or Mac.
How are dates, leading zeros, and thousand-separator commas handled?
Formatted dates (such as 2023/11/01), zero-padded codes (0012), and percentages are exported exactly as displayed in Excel. Thousand-separator commas in numbers (such as 1,234) are automatically removed (1234) so they do not break columns during system imports.
How are cells containing commas, line breaks, or double quotes exported?
When a cell value contains a comma, line break, or double quote, the cell is automatically enclosed in double quotes ("") according to the standard CSV specification (RFC 4180).
Which Excel formats are supported, and how are output files named?
The tool supports .xlsx, .xls, and .xlsm files. Each worksheet is exported as "WorkbookName_SheetName.csv", with invalid filename characters replaced by underscores (_).
How are cells containing formulas or HYPERLINK functions output?
The tool outputs the calculated display value rather than the raw formula text. For HYPERLINK functions, it extracts the displayed text (or target URL if no display text is set), preventing empty cells in the exported CSV.
Why Choose This Tool

Instead of opening workbooks one by one and saving each worksheet manually in Excel, drag and drop multiple Excel files to convert all sheets into CSV format at once. Filter target sheets by name, keep date and leading-zero formats intact, and process everything locally in your browser.
