Default save form

Hello, i have a question about the CSV(Ms-Dos) save type.
When i save an xls file as the CSV form, when i open it again, it doesn't
have the CSV format, but it still has the regular one. Column lines, are not
being converted to " ," .Do i need to make any other adjustments before
saving it?

If you're reopening the .csv file in Excel, then that could be a problem.

Try opening the .csv file in NotePad (or any other text editor).

Reopening the file in excel won't be a good way to check what the .csv file
looks like.

If I follow you correctly...When you open the CVS file in Excel again it
automatically parses it. So to see that you are really saving try opening
the CVS file on a text editor like NotePad.
