The FODS (OpenDocument Flat XML Spreadsheet) file format is a type of document file designed for storing spreadsheet data in a single, uncompressed XML file. It is part of the OpenDocument Format (ODF) family, an open standard for document files. Unlike the more common ODS format, which packages various components of the spreadsheet (such as XML files, metadata, and images) into a single, compressed ZIP file, FODS files store all the spreadsheet information in a flat XML file.
A CSV file is a comma separated values file commonly used by spreadsheet programs such as Microsoft Excel or OpenOffice Calc. It contains plain text data sets separated by commas with each new line in the CSV file representing a new database row and each database row consisting of one or more fields separated by a comma. CSV files are often opened by spreadsheet programs to be organized into cells or used for transferring data between databases.
