Short answer
Open a copied workbook. Choose the sheets you need. Export them as separate CSV files or place those files in one ZIP, then check the result.

When to use this method
Use this method when another system needs one CSV per worksheet, with an optional ZIP to keep those files together.
What you need before exporting workbook sheets
XLSX is a workbook that can contain several worksheets, formulas and formatting. CSV is plain row-and-column text and holds one table per file. Exporting every worksheet therefore creates several CSV files, which can be placed in one ZIP for easier transfer. Charts, cell styling, formulas and workbook behavior do not become CSV features.
Export workbook sheets deliberately
-
Inspect sheet names
Open Document tools, add one copied XLSX workbook and choose CSV. For a first test, use two small sheets, such as January and February, so you can check two outputs.
You should see: every worksheet name from the workbook.
-
Choose sheets and packaging
Keep Export all sheets selected, or clear it and check the sheets you need. Choose Separate CSV files or ZIP archive. Sheet-by-sheet selection requires one workbook; multiple workbooks use all sheets.
You should see: the selected sheet names and packaging option. Each selected sheet will become one CSV.
-
Set delimiter and encoding
A delimiter is the character that separates columns, such as a comma or semicolon. Encoding tells the receiving app how to read letters and symbols. Choose settings that the app importing the CSV supports.
You should see: the chosen delimiter and text encoding in the export settings.
-
Verify data types
Choose a separate output folder and select Start operation. Read Review before starting, then choose Confirm and start. Open the resulting CSV files in the receiving application; extract the ZIP first if you chose that output.
You should see: the expected rows, dates, numbers and non-English text.
Spreadsheet export behaviorHow worksheets, CSV options and saved formula results are handled.
- How it works
- Each selected worksheet becomes its own CSV using the chosen delimiter and encoding. A ZIP packages those files but does not combine their rows.
- Important limit
- The app exports the last formula result saved inside the workbook. This stored result is called a cached value. If no stored result exists, the field is empty and the app shows a warning.
If columns, symbols or formula results look wrong
Open the CSV with the delimiter and character encoding chosen during export. Compare a few dates, decimals, leading zeros and non-English characters with the workbook. The app does not calculate formulas: it exports the last result saved in the workbook when one exists and leaves the field empty with a warning when it does not.
CSV export mistakes
- Treating a ZIP of separate CSV files as one merged table
- Choosing a delimiter the receiver interprets incorrectly
- Skipping date, number and encoding checks
Workbook checkpoint
- The expected sheets were exported.
- In a plain-text editor, each CSV has the intended delimiter, encoding and header row.
- In the receiving tool, row counts, dates, decimal values, leading zeros and non-English text match the workbook.
- Formula results are the workbook's last saved values because export does not recalculate them; review any warning about a missing saved result.
