To upload an Excel spreadsheet into LON-CAPA, you must convert the
Excel spreadsheet into a \emph{Comma Separated Value} file as follows:

\begin{enumerate}

\item Open the spreadsheet in Excel.
\item Choose \textbf{File} and \textbf{Save As...}.
\item Select \textbf{CSV (Comma delimited)(*.csv)} from the \textbf{Save as type:} drop-down 
   menu, \emph{remembering where you saved it}.
\item Click \textbf{Save}.
\item Click \textbf{Ok}, or \textbf{Yes} for any windows that may appear in order to create the
*.csv file.

\end{enumerate}

You can then upload the CSV file generated, as described in
\ref{Course_Create_Class_List}. 

Other spreadsheet programs can also export CSV files. Many of them
follow procedures very similar to Excel. Consult your spreadsheet
program's documentation for more information.
