Exporting Data to Microsoft’s Excel or Apple’s Numbers

The iPad is a great tool for collecting data but spreadsheet programs are usually better at analysis.  So how do you integrate the two?  By exporting your records into a CSV file format.  Both Microsoft’s Excel and Apple’s Numbers can open CSV files and display them in column/row format.

Below are the instructions.

  1. Tap on the share icon. It’s the one with an arrow.
  2. Check the records that you wish to export.
  3. Tap on the “Export” button.
  4. Select the “CSV” file format.
  5. Choose “Email” or “Dropbox”
  6. Open the attachment on your PC, Mac or iPad.
