Yes, I found out the hard way, I murdered a BIG DMR csv file, thank goodness I had saved
a backup.

Thanks for the tips, Chuck, I was wondering how well that worked. When I exported my radio's memory data from CHIRP to a .csv file, I made a copy of it as an Excel file so I could add my own notes. I haven't touched the .csv file yet and may or may not get brave enough to do that and re-upload to the radio. :-) If I do, I'll edit that file in TextEdit instead of Excel.

Watch out for Excel, it is evil on CSV files. It mangles them, I use both CHIRP and programs
for my DMR radios, and I am moving stuff in and out of CSV files, found out the hard way that
Excel does not excel when it comes to CSV. Libre Office is a good option or you can look at it
with note or any other text processing app.
