Question 1

Can I find and replace text across an entire CSV file?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Enter a search term and replacement value, and the tool updates all matching cells across your entire file. You can also limit the operation to specific columns if you don't want to change every match.

Question 2

Does it support regular expressions (regex)?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Toggle regex mode to use regular expression patterns for advanced find and replace. This enables pattern matching like replacing all phone number formats, normalizing dates, or cleaning up whitespace patterns.

Question 3

Can I replace values in specific columns only?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You can select which columns to apply the find and replace to, leaving other columns untouched. This is useful when the same text appears in multiple columns but only needs changing in one.

Question 4

Is the find and replace case-sensitive?

Accepted Answer

By default yes, but you can toggle case-insensitive matching. When case-insensitive, searching for 'apple' will match 'Apple', 'APPLE', and 'apple'. The replacement preserves the exact text you specify.
