🛡️ Security and Privacy

BS.CSV works fully offline: All data processing, editing, and analysis are performed locally on your Windows desktop, eliminating the risk of data breaches associated with cloud or online services. Your sensitive data stays secure on your machine.

BS.CSV gives you maximum control over performance and data protection:

• Row Inspector: Eliminate horizontal scrolling. Show or hide a two-column grid panel next to the main grid that displays the full, vertical content of the selected row. The content is also editable directly in the inspector.

• Custom UI: Switch between a large toolbar layout or a compact menu bar with a small toolbar to suit your screen space and preference.

• Smart Sorting: Activate/Deactivate Simple Sort to perform standard text comparison. When Simple Sort is inactive, BS.CSV performs crucial numeric comparison, ensuring accurate sorting. (Note: Deactivating Simple Sort may slightly increase sort time due to necessary type-checking logic).

• Performance Toggles: Activate or Deactivate the Undo feature and disable Automatic Summary for selected cells to optimize performance and reduce memory usage when editing massive files.

• Read-Only Mode: Toggle Read-Only mode to disable all editing functions. Safely view, analyze, and copy data without any risk of accidental changes.

BS.CSV provides tools that turn raw data into instant insights and manage large datasets:

• • File Splitting: Split an existing file into smaller, user-defined chunks by row count. This is essential for breaking large files down for import into other tools.

  • Data Pivoting: Transform data rows into summary columns for powerful aggregation and comparative analysis.

  • Automatic Summary: Select cells and immediately see vital statistics: count, total, minimum, maximum, and average values (when enabled).

  • Data Filling Tools: Accelerate development and testing by filling cells with choices like: number lists, random numbers, random names, addresses, phone numbers, cities, countries, and random alphanumerics.

  • Case & Occurrence Analysis: Analyze text occurrence and quickly change character case.
