Hello all,

I have two files, both with an extension of .csv. One file is retrieved
from a website and the other is generated by an application (which initially
retrieves it from that same website). When I look at these two files in
notepad, they are visually identical, however, Excel does not display them in
the same way. When I double click on the file from the webpage it opens in
Excel and the columns are all separated properly using the commas as
delimiters, but when I double click on the file from the application all the
data for each row in the report is displayed in the first column and the
commas are not recognized as delimiters. Does anyone know why this would be
happening and how I might be able to fix it? I'm using Excel 2003.

I've found similar questions online, but I haven't been able to find a
resolution. Several posting suggest checking the 'List separator' value,
which is set to a comma on my machine.

Any and all suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Jay
