How to convert xlsx file to csv ? can you please tell me 

it will popup a message when file duplicate, can i set it to overwrite?

I'm not able to convert XLSX files to XLS. Can you please help me with it?

 - This excel conversion custom-activity is unable to convert unicode text comma delimited CSV file. entire data is read in single cell. I was expecting conversion utility to read this file as CSV (Each data in separate column to save in XLSX format).
What I observed is the conversion not converting unicode text comma delimited file successfully. this can be performed by just read content from source file (CSV) and write in the reference file (XLSX). Does not matter what we are picking from the file.


I've used it and the conversion happened as expected. I've tried it with UTF-8 and different characters and the result was the one I was looking for.
Hope future versions will have more functionalities for conversions and encoding!

I've used the 'CSV to XLSX' activity and it worked as expected. Some of the values in the CSV file had ',' which is why I was having some issues getting the datatable from the file without conversion. This activity generated an excel file from which I can get the datatable without any issues.
