I just upgraded from Excel 2000 to 2002, unfortunately a
functionality I use disappeared (or I am missing
something).

What I am trying to do is create an excel instance from an
other VBA enabled program (iFix 2.6) and open a CSV file:

Set objExcel = CreateObject("excel.application")
objExcel.Visible = True
objExcel.Workbooks.Open "test.csv"

What happens is that the file is opened but the delimiters
are not recognised (everything is just put into the first
column).

The weird thing is that when I omit the last line and open
the file from the menu (file, open) everything works fine.

I am using a french Excel version on Win2000 and I am
convinced the regional settings are correct.

Like I said: this worked fine in Excel 2000, why not in
2002??????
