Markdown table to Excel

A CSV opened in Excel is a guess: the app decides which columns are dates, which are numbers, and whether 00123 keeps its zeros. Writing a real .xlsx removes the guessing. This produces a proper workbook with a frozen header row, an autofilter, and column widths measured from your content.

Excel files are binary, so there is nothing to show here. Use download to get the .xlsx, with a bold frozen header row, autofilter and column widths from your content.

questions

Why not just download a CSV?
CSV has no types, no widths and no header styling. Excel re-interprets the values on import, which is where leading zeros and long ids get damaged.
Are numbers written as numbers?
Yes, except values that only look numeric: anything with a leading zero or more than 15 digits stays text, because those are identifiers rather than quantities.
Why is there no preview?
An .xlsx is a zipped binary, so there is nothing meaningful to show as text. Download it to see the result.
