Please let me know is it possible to make CSV Excel file in Arduino? If yes please let me know any article or link or hint.
 

A CSV file is just a file with commas between the data fields, it has nothing to do with Excel but Excel and many other spreadsheets have the ability to read it.

All you have to do is add a comma after each data field and a new line character at the end of each line.

I got it thank you very much.

Please let me know one thing that I want to send data in format as you already define about it but I want that the data should to its own column like temperature in its column , humidity in its own column. Columns have its own headings of temp and humid.
 

same process
on line with column headings, comma separated
followed by the lines of comma separated data

don't forgt the new line character at the end of each line

When you read the csv file into spreadsheet, it should process the commas as "next cell" markers
and the new line character as new line, start on left again

Got it Thanks.
 

And the first line of the CSV file is normally treated as the column headers. It is a very dumb system, it only contains data and it is up to the spreadsheet to do any formatting.

Try producing a small spreadsheet with a few columns and lines and export it as a CSV file. If you open it in a text editor you will see the construction.
