Writing Excel Data to CSV

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by rolign

Hi, any suggestions how to make writing Excel Data to CSV writing faster? It is ok when writing a small amount of lines, but I have some files that might have up to 10 000 lines and that takes a very long time, I gave up after 10 minutes and it had gone through 4000 lines only.

    Please see this solution.  Have you tried that approach?

    Solved: List rows present in a table takes a long time in ... - Power Platform Community (microsoft.com)

     

    Another option is to do it with power query in Excel or Power BI and use a simple R or Python script to do it.

    Wow, that looks like a wonderful solution for a webflow, something similar for Desktop?
