About Swap Columns

The Swap Columns tool allows you to exchange the positions of two specific columns in a dataset. It handles CSV files, pipe-delimited text, or any custom list. This is extremely useful for reordering data (e.g., changing “First Name, Last Name” to “Last Name, First Name”) without using spreadsheet software.

Example

Input:

First Name, Last Name, Age
John, Doe, 30
Jane, Smith, 25

Settings: Swap Column 1 with Column 2 (Delimiter: ,)

Output:

Last Name, First Name, Age
Doe, John, 30
Smith, Jane, 25

How to Use

Step 1: Paste your text data into the input field.
Step 2: Set the Delimiter (usually a comma for CSVs).
Step 3: Enter the numbers of the two columns you want to swap (e.g., 1 and 2).
Step 4: Click “Swap Columns” and copy the result.
