Default Text Import Wizard change default selections

I open a lot of Comma limited files in Excel using the Text Import Wizard.
I need a hack that will pre-set some of the selections in three Wizard steps.
In Step 1, I want to default to Delimited. In Step 2, Default to Comma,
and in Step 3 I want the Date format to default to YMD.

I normally get around this using VB script in the worksheet, but I still
would like to change the default settings. Is there a way to set these
defaults in Excel or in the Registry?
