    One of the first decisions we had to make was which collection management system we would use to build and deliver the directory on the web. Use CSV Import and Import items, tags, and files from CSV files and make it csv into a viewable website. The comma separated value (CSV) file type is used because of its versatility. CSV files are formatted like spreadsheets but saved as text files. This means a CSV file is accessible by a variety of software including spreadsheet, word processing and database programs. CSV files are plain text files and do not support formatting such as bold or italics. Because of this, CSV files are smaller in size, easily emailed or uploaded to websites. Microsoft Access creates tables based on imported CSV files.

    You can Start using Microsoft Access and that will help you to make it viewable on website.

    1. Create a database in mysql if you don't have one.

    2. Create a table in your database, with each column equal to the title row of your csv

    3. Import your CSV to the table (phpmyadmin)

    4. Use php and mysql to interrogate your table and display the contents in a tabulated manner.
