How to force Excel to open CSV files with data arranged in columns


I generate a CSV file with an extension .csv in which every piece of data in one line is separated with a comma:


1,2,3,4
1,2,3,4

The file is sent via email and I want that when a customer opens it she sees data arranged into columns.


Is such thing possible?


PS: I may freely change the delimeter.



Answer



Use tab instead of comma. And if that doesn't work, give your tab-delimited file an xls extension.
