Provides a quick way of downloading a CSV file generated from an Excel spreadsheet file.

downloadCsvFromFile( src, filename[, columns [, columnNames [, headerRow [, rows [, sheetName [, includeHeaderRow [, includeBlankRows [, fillMergedCellsWithVisibleValue [, includeHiddenColumns [, delimiter ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] )

or

downloadCsvFromFile( src, filename, [columns [, columnNames [, headerRow [, rows [, sheetNumber [, includeHeaderRow [, includeBlankRows [, fillMergedCellsWithVisibleValue [, includeHiddenColumns [, delimiter ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] )

• src string: full path to the file to read
• filename string: name of the file to download, without the file extension

• columns string: specify the columns you want to read as a comma-delimited list of ranges. Each value can be either a single number or a range of numbers with a hyphen, e.g. "1,2-5"
• columnNames string: a comma-delimited list of the names to use for the query columns in the order the columns appear in the spreadsheet. If you specify fewer names than the total number of columns, the remaining column names will be in the form columnX. Note that specifying columnNames overrides use of a headerRow for column names.
• headerRow numeric: specify which row is the header to be used for the query column names
• rows string: specify the rows you want to read as a comma-delimited list of ranges. Each value can be either a single number or a range of numbers with a hyphen, e.g. "1,2-5"
• sheetName string: name of the sheet to read OR
• sheetNumber numeric default=1: number of the sheet to read (1 based, not zero-based)
• includeHeaderRow boolean default=false: whether to include the header row from the spreadsheet (NB: the default is the opposite to Adobe ColdFusion 9, which is excludeHeaderRow=false).
• includeBlankRows boolean default=false: whether to include blank rows from the spreadsheet in the query data set. By default blank rows are suppressed.
• fillMergedCellsWithVisibleValue boolean default=false: if the source sheet contains merged cells, set the value of each cell in the merged region to the visible value stored in the top/left-most cell
• includeHiddenColumns boolean default=true: if set to false, columns formatted as "hidden" will not be included when reading into a query
• delimiter string default=",": delimiter to use.

Chainable? No.
