If I click on the load file it seems to want to specific file format Calibri search and replace definitions file.

Is it possible to convert my spreadsheet into an appropriate format to load into calibre.

Thank you for any help and sorry if this has already been answered elsewhere
Enter the first few items from your CSV list into Conversion S&R list, then Save the CSR file. Hopefully you'll then be able to work out a way to create a CSR file from your CSV.

If the ebook files in question are EPUBs, another possibility might be to use the Sigil ePubTidyTool plugin.
