Data formatting in CSV file to EXCEL
Hello friends
I want to convert an csv file on unix (which is generated by a ETL application) to a formatted excel sheet like .I have roughly like 28 columns
1)All numbers need to be stored as numbers with leading zeros-like format as text for this column to preserve leading zeroes e.g '0012'
2)All Amounts should be formatted as numbers with 2 decimals and separator e.g '123.45'
3)All dates to be formatted as MM/DD/YYYY
My users are totally business and they want this unix csv file totally formatted so that they can use it readily..
I have read forums where people suggested using perl script ..Any initial help to start with is greatly appreciated.

processcsv.py
PROCESSCSV.PY(1) Virtualization Support PROCESSCSV.PY(1)
NAME
processcsv.py - process virt-top CSV files
SUMMARY
virt-top --csv data.csv
processcsv.py < data.csv
DESCRIPTION
virt-top is a top(1)-like utility for showing stats of virtualized domains.
processcsv.py is a simple Python script that post-processes the output of "virt-top --csv".
It is used like this:
virt-top --csv data.csv
processcsv.py < data.csv
The second command will overwrite the following files in the current directory:
"global.csv"
This contains the global (host) statistics columns from the CSV file.
"domainNN.csv" (multiple files)
For each libvirt domain ID NN, a file is created containing the per-domain statistics from the CSV file.
