Default File size comparison

I have a file that I download off my companies webserver.
When I pull it off the webserver to my harddrive it comes
down as a 12 meg CSV file. I open the file in Excel 2000
and then save it as an Excel file and the file size
changes to around 3 meg. When the file is in Excel I have
6000 rows and the columns go out to AK. Is there an easy
way to see what I am loosing when I go from the CSV to
Excel? It worrys me that there is such a huge file
difference
