Creating a new analysis from a local file
You can create new analyses from files that are saved locally on your computer.
This topic describes how to create an analysis based on a Microsoft Excel Workbook, but you load data from other file formats in a similar way.
You can create new analyses from locally saved files of the following file formats: Microsoft Excel Workbooks (.xlsx, .xls), Microsoft Excel Binary Workbooks (.xlsb), Microsoft Excel Macro-Enabled Workbooks (.xlsm), comma separated values files (.csv), text files (.txt), logfiles (.log), TIBCO Spotfire Text Data Format files (.stdf), TIBCO Spotfire Binary Data Format files (.sbdf). You can also open locally saved TIBCO Spotfire analysis files (.dxp), but then you will not create a new analysis; instead an existing analysis will be opened.
