The CSV format is a very simple general data format that has been around for many years and allows any text-based data to be stored and exchanged between systems that can interpret CSV files with minimal development needed.
Data is stored within the file as a series of columns separated by a ',' character. The simplistic nature of CSV files has made them a popular choice for exchanging data between spreadsheet applications such as Microsoft's Excel and databases such as the many SQL-based databases.
Support for CSV files is widespread amongst spreadsheet and database software, making it possible to import and export CSV from Excel and other spreadsheets. SQL databases also offer options to exchange data between CSV files.

A TXT file is a simple text file that contains only plain text characters; binary data cannot be stored in text files. Text files allow storage of simple text documents where rich text formatting features such as bold, italic, underline, etc. are not needed.
Initially, text files could only store characters residing in the ASCII character set; however, over the years, character encoding properties have been added to allow for non-ASCII characters to be represented using formats such as UTF8 and UTF16.
TXT files are supported by all major operating systems, with most platforms including built-in software allowing text files to be opened and edited without any additional software. Text files also form the basis for many other file formats, such as XML, CSV, and more.
