The problem with CSV is, that it's a standard that doesn't specify the 
character set. So everybody chooses its own character set.
(Actually that isn't really the case, the character set just isn't ANSI, 
ASCII, Unicode, UTF-8, UTF-16 or anything of those 'new' sets. It's EBCDIC. 
It's a shame everybody diverges from that standard.)
 
My suggestion: for any project, avoid CSV. It's not worth the trouble.
