Use the OpenText method instead. Also, you will probably need to rename the
file to have a .txt extension. sometimes Excel makes its own decisions when
opening .CSV files.

or you can use Chip Pearson's code (or write your own)

I've changed the list separator to semicolon. Now I try to open csv file
(delimited by semicolons) from macro with command: Workbooks.Open
FileName:="filename.csv", but it doesn't work. The entire row open to
first
cell. how can I tell in open command the separator is semicolon?
