yes, it can
The delimiter used in the data being converted from text to columns can vary depending on the format of the data. Common delimiters include commas (,), tabs (\t), semicolons (;), and spaces ( ). In spreadsheet applications like Excel, you can specify the delimiter when using the "Text to Columns" feature to separate the data correctly.
A field indicator or a delimeter, as it can be called, can be used to indicate where fields end. In a spreadsheet or a database it can be used a guide when importing data to help put it into the correct columns.
No. It joins data within a cell.
When you import data into Excel, if it is comma-separated, the comma will determine what goes into each cell, and so be in a different column. Data in different lines in the source, will be put in different rows. If the data is coming from a table the data will go into the same structure. So if it is a table in Word, or data from a table in Access, it will go in the same way. The same would apply for other word processors and databases that data is coming from.
A flat file needs a unique delimiter which separates the fields of data. Commas can be used--but with caution. If the table you are extracting the data from has commas in the fields of data, then there will be an extra delimiter in the flat file because that field's comma is recognized as a field break. You have to analyze your data and find a unique delimiter to separate the fields. Then run tests to make sure all rows import/export. When you do the import/export you can usually specify a "log" file where exceptions are written to. You can then analyze those rows for why they did not import/export successfully. Usually there is a missing column/field of data which causes the row to not equal what the row should represent.
The purpose is the preamble signals to the receiving node that data is incoming and indicates when the data flow is about to begin. The SFD (start-of-frame delimiter) identifies where the data field begans.
That depends on the nature of the text and what way you want it to be in columns. If it is just a large block of text that you want into newspaper-styled columns, then word processors and desktop publishers have the facility to do that. If you want text that is data, like names and addresses etc. and you want to break the data up so that all the names are in a column and the addresses are in columns, then you do something different. You separate the components on a line with commas and put each new set of data on a new line. Then it can be imported into a database or spreadsheet and the data will be split into columns based where the commas are.
A delimiter is a sequence of one or more characters used to specify the boundary between separate, independent regions in plain text or other data streams. An example of a delimiter is the comma character, which acts as a field delimiter in a sequence of comma-separated values
It is something used to delimit - mark - something that isn't program code. It is most often used to refer to strings. The delimiters for strings are most often " ", and ' '. A delimiter is a sequence of one or more characters used to specify the boundary between separate, independent regions in plain text or other data stream. An example of a delimiter is the comma
Data organized into columns and rows is called a table.
Hiding columns in a table does not remove the data from the table; it simply hides the column from view. The data in the hidden columns remains in the table and can be unhidden at any time to display the data.
In columns and rows. The columns generally have titles
