Beyond CSV files, Python in Excel supports connections to databases and APIs, expanding its applications for diverse data challenges and decision-making.

To import data from a text file into Microsoft Excel, follow this step-by-step guide: First, create a blank spreadsheet in Microsoft Excel and ensure you have the .txt file on your PC.

Normally, VLOOKUP retrieves this data from cells within the spreadsheet. But Excel can import its data from other files as well, including comma separated value (CSV) files.

Microsoft Excel has an import wizard, but if you structure the text correctly, you can bypass the wizard altogether.
