FAQ
- Does the converter preserve data types in Excel?
Values are written as plain cell values. Excel will usually infer numbers, dates, and text automatically based on the content, but you can always adjust formats inside Excel.
- What if my table has many rows?
The preview only shows the first few rows for performance reasons, but the downloaded XLSX file contains all rows parsed from your MySQL input.
- Do I need a CREATE TABLE statement?
No, but including CREATE TABLE helps the tool detect column headers. Without it, generic column names like column1, column2 are used.
- Can I change the worksheet name?
The default sheet is named "Sheet1". After downloading, you can rename the sheet inside Excel or your spreadsheet application.
- Is my SQL data uploaded or stored anywhere?
No. All processing runs locally in your browser, and the generated XLSX file is created directly on your device.
Privacy & Security
All conversions happen locally in your browser. Your MySQL data is never uploaded to any server, ensuring complete privacy and security.
