NOTE: Using Microsoft Excel to create or edit CSV files may cause errors and be unable to be imported.

A CSV file created or saved by Excel will 99% of the time cause an error to occur as it will not include quotes, sometimes will not make allowances for empty fields, may misinterpret returns or comma’s in the field as being a separate field.

If you presently have an Excel file that is in correctly formatted for the number of fields and placement of fields, and for data – once that is completed, than it is suggested and recommended to import it into a table in Microsoft Access. Right click on the table, select Export…, select CSV from the drop down list and the CSV file will be created correctly with quotes and commas.
