CSV Format Best Practice

The accepted state format for all iNHDEX extracts is Comma-Separated Value (CSV). If the Microsoft Excel application is installed on your computer, this file type usually defaults to opening with it. Microsoft Excel handles date-time values in a very specific way. The default handling of date values removes leading 0s, which will cause issues with your reporting.


To avoid issues, make sure to edit CSV files using a text editor such as Notepad, Notepad++, or a similar application. If you want to continue using Excel, ensure that all date fields are set to the MM/DD/YYYY format with leading 0's (e.g., "8/4/2024" should display as "08/04/2024"). This Microsoft article provides detailed instructions on changing date format in Excel: Format a date the way you want - Microsoft Support.
