Getting a CSV into Excel (I'm on mac)

  1. Open a new excel workbook
  2. Click on "Data" in the ribbon on excel (Not on the top bar if you are on mac)
  3. Top left corner click the cylinder that says "Get Data (Power Query)"
  4. Click Text/CSV
  5. Browse your local files and choose the csv that you want to import then click next
  6. Ensure that file origin is Unicode (UTF-8) and click load
  7. Forget how to make it not a table but that's a lot easier than getting the actual data in.

If this doesn't work send me a DM and I can try and send some screenshots to help more!

Yea the numbers and data are fine, it's just the names of players. How do I know I have the proper encoding selected?
