Hello!

 

I have a few hundred CSV files that I need to convert to excel files. They are all in the same folder. Is it possible to convert an entire folder at once?

You could use this CSV to Excel macro,

Thank you for sharing, but I am having some troubles getting this to work. I have associated the folder I want in directory but keep getting the following error:

 

CSV to Excel (2) Record #3: Tool #1: CSVFile: A field was missing a closing quote in record 3: ...ing or exceeding our overall team goals.

Can you share the offending CSV file? You may have to change some of the configuration settings of the Input Data Tool inside the macro...
