Hey everybody, maybe we need to lighten things up a little bit in here?

Toni, first thing: relax :-)
Second, there's more than one way to do it ;-)
Third, maybe we could be more helpful if we know what you are trying to do, what your limitations are, etc.

For instance, do you need to use Excel? Are you open to another method? What programs are going to be accessing the CSV?

Update!:
This was not a slam on Toni! I was trying to make this person feel more comfortable in all the tension... I should have been more clear. Perhaps I should have said "first thing, it's all good :-)"

It's just that there's this Tibetan guy I know and he is always laughing and saying "relax..."

It's all good.
