Here are two free SQL to CSV converter software for Windows. Using these software, you can easily convert a SQL script directly to a CSV file. In these software, you can paste the SQL code and these will construct the data table that you can export as a CSV file. These software allow use of multiple tabs, so you can open multiple SQL files in them and then execute them to get the tables. In one of these software, you can even choose a desired delimiter to be used in the final CSV files but comma is default delimiter.

If you have a SQL script that you want to convert to CSV without setting up heavy database systems like MySQL MSSQL, then you can try the software that I have listed below. However, these software doesn’t directly convert the SQL code to CSV. The first software in this list simply executes the input script and show you the result. The other software is simple SQLite editor software that uses a database to assist with the SQL to CSV conversion. In just a few seconds, you can end up converting a SQL script to CSV. Of course, there are some online tools to do the same, but for Windows, I could find only these two software.
