Text files holding Web queries - Internet Query fiels used by Microsoft applications, most notably Excel, are saved with IQY extension. Such files allow users to fetch information from websites as .ASP files and save them to disk or import directly into application.
CSV is a file format that stores various types of data saved in character-separated text sets, typically with a comma character, hence the format’s name - Comma Separated Value. CSV standard is defined in RFC 4180.
After converting the file to the new format, you will be able to use other programs to support it. Keep in mind, however, that the IQY file after converting to CSV may differ slightly from the original. The most important information should be kept, but if you want the file after conversion from IQY to CSV to be the same, you have to do this carefully and choose the proper application from the list below.
There is no guarantee, of course, that the conversion will come up to all your expectations, but it will certainly help you. If, after all, the effect of converting IQY to CSV does not meet your expectations, you can simply try to find on the Internet a different version of your file in IQY format, properly converted to a CSV file by someone else. If this fails, use the information provided in the further part of the website.
If after converting the file IQY the desired result was not achieved, you can try to change the format of IQY file to other than CSV. On our website you will find more information on the following conversion options
Unfortunately, if after performing the two previously described steps (trying to find your IQY file converted by someone else, and the attempt to convert it to CSV on your own) you still have a problem with your file, then there are only a few solutions left. You can once again try to find and install an application that can open the IQY file in its original format (without conversion to CSV file). Such a solution will be difficult to implement, but it certainly will give the best result.
