Why Export Listview to CSV?
CSV file (Comma Separated Values, sometimes also called Comma Delimited) is a specially formatted plain text file which stores spreadsheet or basic database-style information in a very simple format, with one record on each line, and each field within that record separated by a comma. It is often used to exchange data between disparate applications. CSV has become a pseudo standard throughout the industry, even among non-Microsoft platforms because it is used in Microsoft Excel.
CSV files are often used as a simple way to transfer a large volume of spreadsheet or database information between programs, without worrying about special file types. For example, transferring a home-made address book from Excel into a database program such as Filemaker Pro could be done by exporting the file as a CSV from Excel, then importing that CSV into File maker.
