CSV Column Extractor

Isolating and Extracting Specific Columns from Large CSV Files

Working with CSV files containing dozens or hundreds of columns is inefficient when your target system or report only requires a few specific fields (such as email, user ID, and registration date).

The OrbitInfra CSV Column Extractor analyzes your header row, presents interactive checkboxes for every column, and lets you extract, reorder, or drop fields instantly.

How to Use

1. Paste your CSV text or upload your `.csv` file.
2. Review the detected column headers in the interactive selector panel.
3. Check only the columns you want to keep and arrange their order.
4. Export the trimmed CSV containing only your selected columns.

Key Features & Capabilities

• Interactive column selection checkboxes with "Select All" and "Deselect All" shortcuts.
• Reorder columns effortlessly to match target database schema requirements.
• Preserves quoted cells and special characters in all extracted data.
