Hello!

I have an excel file which I saved in csv format. The excel in default case use ; as a delimitter. When I try to import the csv file the pasing of the file was not correct. The cobalt hasn't realise the columns correctly. After I changed all ; to , in notepad++ the parsing method of the cobalt worked correctly and the import was OK. Please check the parsing of csv fikles. Thanks! Antal

IMHO, you should be able to set another default delimiter. Either in Excel itself, or in Windows control panel -> Region(al) ... Please, search the net for a detailed tutorial.

Thanks for your report!
I remember there was an issue in the past with ; SEMICOLON, but I thought it has been fixed a long time ago.
I have to admit that I always used , COMMA. So, I can't really confirm your issue.

That means we store datas with several comas in the texts (adresses, names eg.). In the latest excel vbersions it is not possible to change the separator.

I know you may have coma in texts, but you can delimit text with "
