ConvertTo-Csv

Short description
Converts objects into a series of comma-separated value (CSV) variable-length strings.

Syntax


Description
The ConvertTo-CSV cmdlet returns a series of comma-separated (CSV) strings that represents the objects that you 
submit. You can then use the ConvertFrom-CSV cmdlet to re-create objects from the CSV strings. The resulting objects 
are CSV versions of the original objects that consist of string representations of the property values and no methods.


You can also use the T:Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.Export-Csv and T:Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.Import-Csv cmdlets 
to convert objects to CSV strings (and back). Export-CSV is the same as ConvertTo-CSV, except that it saves the CSV 
strings in a file.


You can use the parameters of the ConvertTo-CSV cmdlet to specify a delimiter other than a comma or to direct 
ConvertTo-CSV to use the default delimiter for the current culture.


For more information, see Export-CSV, and see the Notes section.
