Hello,

I did try the method described here [Making CSV reports - Taiga basics / Tutorials and Guides - Taiga Community](https://community.taiga.io/t/making-csv-reports/163) in Excel, but whatever I did do it di not create a table.

The issue is described as “no column to import”

Many thx for any hint

Hi there,

Excel sometimes behaves weirdly with CSV, at least in our experience, that’s why we do not include it in the tutorial.

In any case, please try the following:

- Download the CSV file.
- In Excel, go to the Data tab, and select “From Text/CSV”.
- Make sure to tweak the options until it detects columns, headers and the like properly.
- Click import.

Hope this helps,

Best regards!
