CSV viewer online

This viewer runs in your browser: turn on JavaScript to read the file. The page makes no network request.

Up to 20 MB per file, in your browser. Values are shown as written in the file. For Excel and Parquet files, editing and larger files, use Novair Sheets in VS Code.

How it works

Separator and encoding

Comma, semicolon, tab or pipe is chosen on the first rows; UTF-8 is checked, otherwise the file is read as Windows-1252. Quoted fields with commas or line breaks stay in their cell.

Sort and filter

Click a header to sort (numbers as numbers, text in natural order), click again to reverse. Type in Filter rows to keep the rows that contain the text, in any column.

Nothing leaves the page

The page loads its viewer once, then makes no network request (Content-Security-Policy connect-src 'none'). Nothing is kept after you close the tab.

Questions

Is my CSV file uploaded?

No. The file is read by this page in your browser; the page is not allowed to make network requests. Close the tab and nothing remains.

How large a file can I open?

Up to 20 MB here. Novair Sheets for VS Code reads large files as a stream on your computer: the first rows show while the rest is read.

Can it open Excel or Parquet files?

Not this online viewer, which reads CSV and TSV. Novair Sheets for VS Code opens .xlsx, .xlsm, .xls, .ods and Parquet in the same grid.

Can I edit the CSV or compare two files?

In VS Code, with Novair Sheets: editing with undo is free, and Pro matches two tables by key and lists every changed cell.
