CSV is super easy for merging and is very human readable if you run into issues. The only drawback I can think of is you probably wont be able to use formulas. | |

| Mar 24, 2020 at 7:38 | comment | added | milk | Is the merging with Excel difficult because you're using a fancy file format instead of an easily human readable one like csv or xml? | |
| Mar 24, 2020 at 2:15 | comment | added | Almo♦ | You don't want to merge. Hence seperate files. | |
| Mar 23, 2020 at 21:35 | comment | added | DMGregory♦ | @Almo this looks like it could be an answer, especially if you have any tips about solving the merge problem OP mentions. | |
