# Use Excel to view CSV files

* Create a new Excel Sheet in your workspace folder.
  * Let's call this file `overview.xlsx`

{% hint style="info" %}
The is a sample pre-configured Excel sheet in you Templates folder and you may this instead of starting from scratch.
{% endhint %}

Using *Data -> From Text / CSV* we reference an existing CSV file. So, make sure you ran the [GET - Deployments and Packages](/boomi-console/commands/deploy/deploy-info-1.md) before!

Select your `deploymentOverview.csv` and *Import* that file. In Excel you can the use conditional formation to highlight your deployment status. Unfortunately I don't know how to copy existing formatting from one table to another. Find here a r**ecommended format for three environments** (columns G, H, I).

The last formulars with `MID` compare the deployed versions from each environment to highlight differences. If you look at the following output, you can quickly see that the deployments to Local and Cloud are not aligned:

* <mark style="color:red;">Red</mark> stands for different versions
* \--- stands for: not available
* **black** means: same version as left system.
