Which Tableau Desktop menu path allows you to export all underlying rows from the active worksheet to a comma-separated values file that colleagues can open in Excel without Tableau?
Choosing Worksheet > Export > Data writes the underlying rows of the current worksheet to a .csv file. A CSV can be opened by Excel users who do not have Tableau installed. Exporting as PDF creates a static image of the view, not the data. Exporting a Crosstab to Excel sends only the visible crosstab layout, not every underlying row. Saving as a packaged workbook preserves the visualization and data for Tableau users, but colleagues still need Tableau or Tableau Reader to open it and cannot directly view the raw rows in Excel.
