Modern CSV is a powerful tabular file editor/viewer application. Professionals at all levels of technical proficiency use it to analyze data, check files for uploading to databases, modify configuration files, maintain customer lists, and more. We designed it to compensate for the deficiencies of spreadsheet programs in handling CSV/TSV/DSV/etc. files. We strive to create a user experience our customers describe as “blissful”.
Edit CSV Files with Ease
Why should it be difficult to move a column around, duplicate a row, or split cells? With Modern CSV, it’s easy. With most commands, you can operate on multiple rows, columns, or cells at once. This makes repetitive actions effortless. Most commands have a keyboard shortcut. If a command doesn’t have one or you don’t like the default, you can make your own shortcut.
Find and Arrange Your CSV Data
The Find/Replace feature has all the options you need to find what you’re looking for. It can also highlight matches as you type or preview Replace operations before you do them. If you need to sort a column, double click the column label. It uses stable sort so the order of the other columns is preserved as much as possible. Filters use a powerful syntax that is clearly described in the filter query. Finally, you can manually hide whichever rows or columns you want. All you have to do is select and call the hide command.
View Large CSV Files Quickly
Modern CSV is not only a powerful CSV editor, it’s also a powerful CSV viewer. It comes with a read-only mode that loads large files quickly and with a small memory footprint just a fraction of the file size. In fact, it can load up to 11 times faster than Excel.
A Fully Customizable CSV Editor
We designed Modern CSV to be an application that is comfortable to use. To view your CSV files more easily, you can pick a the theme from 5 options, change cell sizes, or shade every other row or column. For the keyboard ninjas, we gave most commands keyboard shortcuts that you can set to your liking. You can also tell it how to handle files of different extensions. Do your .csv files have semi-colon delimiters in ANSI (Windows-1252, Western European) character encoding with CRLF newline characters? You can have it open and save files accordingly every time.
