Creating a CSV File

The easiest way to create a CSV (Comma Separated Value) file is with Microsoft Excel. 

• Open a new Excel Workbook. SchoolNotes allows you to attach a parent and/or student name to each contact you create. With that in mind, you can create a file that contains a list of e-mails only

Or, if you have the names of the parents/students you can include that data as well.  

• Once you have all of your contacts listed you will need to save your document as a CSV file. To do this select ‘Save As’ from the File Menu. When the window opens, select ‘CSV’ from the “Save as type” menu:

*Important* When naming you file, be sure there are no spaces in the file name:

You have now created an up-loadable, text-only contact file!
