Note: The column separator, in this case a comma, is dependent on your regional settings on your PC. For example, German regional settings use a semi-colon (;) as the column separator. When transferring data between PCs with different regional settings it is therefore advisable to use a binary format such as Microsoft Excel and then re-export the data as CSV format on the new PC. Microsoft Excel will use the appropriate regional setting as the column separator.
