A QUICK WALKTHROUGH

How to use this tool

  1. Paste up to 100,000 characters.
  2. Choose a literal delimiter and quote handling.
  3. Review the column preview; processing stays in your browser.

Quotes and line breaks

Double-quoted fields may contain delimiters and line breaks; doubled double quotes represent one quote inside a field. Unquoted line breaks start a new row.

Local processing and limits

The input is limited to 100,000 characters, 5,000 rows, and 100 columns. Text is never uploaded.

GOOD TO KNOW

Common questions

Are the quotes kept?

With CSV quote handling selected, wrapping quotes are removed and doubled quotes inside a quoted field are restored. With no quote handling, quotes remain literal.
