About this tool
TSV (tab-separated values) is a plain-text table with tabs between the columns, safe for values that contain commas. SLK (SYLK, Symbolic Link) is an old Microsoft format for exchanging one table; it stores only basic Latin letters reliably.
This converter turns your TSV file into SLK, the right choice for old programs that exchange tables as SYLK. The values of the first sheet are saved as SLK; formulas become their results and formatting is dropped, because SLK holds one plain table. Add up to 10 files at once – each one is converted in the background, so you can keep using the site and download every result as soon as it is ready.
Spreadsheets are converted on our server: the upload starts only after you confirm, the original is deleted after conversion and the result is kept for 7 days unless you delete it sooner.
Frequently asked questions
How do I convert TSV to SLK?
Choose or drop your TSV file, keep SLK as the output and click Convert. After you confirm the upload, our server converts the file and shows the progress; then you download the SLK file.
Can I convert several TSV files at once?
Yes. Add up to 10 files at a time. Each gets its own background job with its own progress, and you can download each result as soon as it is finished.
How large can the file be?
Each file can be up to 100 MB.
What happens to my file?
It is uploaded only after you confirm. The original is deleted as soon as the conversion is finished, and the SLK file is kept for 7 days so you can download it – you can delete it yourself at any time.
Is the TSV to SLK converter free?
Yes. It is free, without sign-up and without a watermark.
Why is only the first sheet saved?
SLK holds one table of plain values, so only the first sheet is saved, formulas become their results and formatting is dropped. Use XLSX or CSV if you need more.
Are the separator and encoding recognised?
Yes. Comma, semicolon, tab and vertical bar are detected automatically, as are UTF-8 and Windows text encoding and numbers with a decimal comma such as 1.234,50.
