Default cell format options when importing data

Is there a way to set the cell format options prior to importing a comma
delimeted file. I'm opening a .csv file extension and all of the columns are
being formatted as 'general'. I want to format either one of the columns as
text or all of the columns as text.

Thanks,
Tom
