Export PostgreSQL tables into a new Excel workbook, one sheet per table. Numbers arrive as numbers, and dates as real Excel dates.

  • Reads the tables of a PostgreSQL database.
  • Writes an .xlsx workbook. No Microsoft Office or Excel driver is needed.
  • Runs on Windows as a desktop application.
  • The same download loads Excel into PostgreSQL. One licence key covers the MySQL and SQL Server pairs too.

What the workbook looks like

One sheet per table

Each sheet is named after its table. A name Excel cannot take, such as one over 31 characters, one with [ ] : * ? / \, or a duplicate, is changed to a valid one.

Column names in the first row

The rows follow underneath. A workbook holds tables, columns, and rows only.

A new file on every run

A workbook already at that path is replaced, and the application warns you before the run. Sheets are not added to an existing workbook.

A job keeps both connections, the table selection, and the options. Run it again from the application, or by name from Task Scheduler with --run-job.

How PostgreSQL values arrive in Excel

In PostgreSQL In the workbook What needs attention
Numbers Numbers. Excel keeps 15 significant digits. A longer number is written as text, every digit kept.
Dates and date-times Excel dates, with a date format applied.
Text Text. Excel holds 32,767 characters per cell. A longer value is refused by name, not cut.
Booleans TRUE and FALSE.
NULL An empty cell.

Excel's row limit, and what stays in PostgreSQL

A sheet holds 1,048,575 data rows. A larger table is refused by name, never cut short. Keys, indexes, and constraints stay in PostgreSQL: a workbook has no place for them.
