Downloading a file in CRV format and saving as Excel
Hi,
I still used a much older Windows and Excel version and have had to very recently upgrade to MS 365 and Windows 10.
Downloading a (ie) bank statement in CSV and filing it as an Excel spreadsheet was straightforward.
However, it is no longer so. I downloaded the statement and used Excel>Data>From Text/CSV - and filed it as an Excel file. When working with the data, I cannot use any of the normal formulas (ie vlookup, etc).
I assume that I must have missed something in the setup

- Patrick2788Silver ContributorHave you tried opening the CSV directly from file explorer?
When you use Data | From Text/CSV, PowerQuery is invoked and may not be needed in this situation.- Kobus4838Copper ContributorYes I did and it opens in a PowerQuery mode - which I do not need
