Excel - Export to CSV is returning extra commas at the end lines
I have an Excel doc that needs to be exported to CSV text file, to be imported into a database. When I export to CSV nearly every line has extra commas at the end, which need to be removed. I believe it is adding these to match the column number of the largest row in my Excel doc. I don't have a fixed number of column headers though, so I don't want these extra columns. e.g., so rows my have data in 4 columns, where some may have 5, 6, 7, or 8 columns with data.
Any idea how to export without these? I'm trying to avoid having to manually remove them from the exported CSV. Thanks -
