Default How do I automatically import CSV data on startup

From a New Excel SpreadSheet
Data - Import External Data - Import Data
From Select Data Source
Files of Type = Text Files - File Name = export.csv
From Text Import Wizard
Next (to step 2) - Delimiters = comma - Next (to step 3) - Finish
From Import Data
Specifiy import location of data - OK
From Spreadsheet
Data - Import External Data - External Data Range Properties
From External Data Range Properties
Under "Refresh Control", select the check box beside "Refresh Data on File
Open" - OK

-OR-

You could just open the csv file. :-)
