Default Problems with saving a Excel file

The best way to explain what is happening to me is to show you with screen
shots, I have added explanations with each screen shot.
I hope someone can help me.

Default Problems with saving a Excel file

If you save as csv, it is merely a text file. You can read the contents of
it with something like Notepad.
A csv file doesn't store parameters like column widths; that's why it gives
you the warning about parameters that might be lost, and why it gives you
the option to save as an Excel file instead of a csv. If you want to save
things like column widths, ave as an Excel file (.xls).
