Information about TAB and CSV file formats
| Name | TAB | CSV |
| Full name | MapInfo TAB format | CSV - Comma-Separated Values |
| File extension | .tab | .csv |
| MIME type | text/csv | |
| Developed by | MapInfo Corporation | Informational RFC |
| Type of format | multi-platform, serial data streams | |
| Description | The MapInfo TAB format is a geospatial vector data format for geographic information systems software. It is developed and regulated by MapInfo Corporation as a proprietary format. | In computing, a comma-separated values (CSV) file stores tabular data (numbers and text) in plain text. Each line of the file is a data record. Each record consists of one or more fields, separated by commas. The use of the comma as a field separator is the source of the name for this file format. |
| Technical details | The CSV file format is not standardized. The basic idea of separating fields with a comma is clear, but that idea gets complicated when the field data may also contain commas or even embedded line-breaks. CSV implementations may not handle such field data, or they may use quotation marks to surround the field. | |
