    CSV Lint is not highlighting the columns. It says the data validates and properly recognizes the columns, but no highlighting.

    Where are you getting TextFx, it doesn't exist in my latest version of Notepadd++. I just need to align columns using commas

      Jaime, thank you. I use FreePlane mind mapping tool, it is free, open source and have a pretty dedicated community. It has a slight learning curve, but overall, I am pretty happy with it. Please like&share the videos. Thank you.

    My columns don't all line up. What do you do to get them in a straight column? I have windows 11 64bit and there is no TextFX for Notepad++ 64bit.

      @@NealHartsChannel I saved the data you sent as a CSV file. And I was able to get the colors for different columns, but the columns are not aligning for me either. I may have to take a look at this.
      BTW, you may not be seeing TextFX Plugin, because TextFX plugin in only available for 32 version of Notepad++ and you may have Notepad++ 64 bit application. Take a look at this video for more details. (ruclips.net/video/lYwAEchP9D4/видео.html). Thanks.

    Hi Amit... do you have a recommendation for a TextFX replacement, apparently its not supported anymore and one can't install in the 64 bit version. I found the delimiter "line up" function super helpful. Any advice would be most helpful. thank you sir!

    • @AmitChristian
      @AmitChristian  2 года назад +4

      Believe it or not, I just had posted a video few weeks ago about TextFX plugin. Currently it is only available in 32bit application. There is a sort of alpha version of 64bit textFx plugin, but it remains untested. (ruclips.net/video/lYwAEchP9D4/видео.html). So, far I have not found a suitable alternative for TextFX, if I do, I will let you know. Thank you for your comment.

      A better CSV plugin is CSVQuery. It's 64 bit compatible. It doesn't do the colors, but it does a little data window. You can sort, you can filter via little select statements, you can show row numbers - so if you do like where lastname='smith' it will show you just those rows, you can create new csv based on your filter/sort etc

    • @AmitChristian

    Thank you. Something unfortunate for me:
    1- I've installed the plugin, then exit the program and reload just to make sure;
    2- Loading a Google contact CSV file shows the colors, however the columns are not aligned: empty fields are squeezed, and others are as large as their data for each record (line). It's a coma delimited file.
    EDIT: same thing with an Outlook CSV file... I'll try to see with the creator (if it's possible in some manner)
    EDIT2: I solved the problem: in the CSVLint window, I had to click the "Reformat" button, check "Align vertically" and then "Ok". All is good now! 🙂

      You're the guy! Thanks! Any chance to format um columns automatically when open an CSV file?

    • @HawkFest
      @HawkFest 5 месяцев назад +1

      I didn't see the option in the settings dialog, sorry.
      Also, on an Outlook csv file, it seems to impose a hidden column limit which cannot be changed: clicking on "Validate data" will throw a _too many columns error"_ on every line/record.". Same thing for a data fields having a string of characters within quotes: if it's too long it will remove the last quotation mark, and throw a validation error when clicking "Validate data"..

    Hi Amit! Nice video. I have a question. If I have a large file with 10k records, how do I select the column? For instance, using the Alt and mouse down the column would take forever, so how would you do it?

    • @AmitChristian
      @AmitChristian  2 года назад

      rbdenham, if you have a large file with thousands of records, you can technically use column edit mode (ruclips.net/video/DxQ30PxtEKc/видео.html ). I just tried it. All you have to do is to select Shift + ALT keys and select the few lines (vertical selection) and then use the mouse to scroll to the end of the file (probably thousand of lines below), and then select that column again. Notepad++ would select the entire column. Now you can add a text there. The only caveat is that Notepad++ will become unresponsive for a bit, but once it finishes the task of adding text to all those thousands of lines, it will be responsive again.
      However, it is better to use Regular expression for such task, you can search and replace with regular expression mode enabled. I have some videos about using Regex ( ruclips.net/video/MpEdP8-ZNRY/видео.html ). You can also post a small sample of your text here and tell me what you would like to do, and I can help you get the regular expression for it.
      Thanks. All the best.

I have made headway, but now my fixed columns are off with the replacement because each email address is different lengths. The email address field is a fixed column of 65 characters, and the replacement one throws off the next field in the fixed columns because of the varying size of the original email address.
