CSV just stands for comma separate values.  CSV support is pretty common as
a way of moving data between applications, and most all spreadsheets support
it.  It's just a text file like this:

Value1,value2,value3

Sometimes you might have a string delimiter like so:

Value1,value2,"string 1 here",value3

Wow, thanks for the tips. I wasn't even aware of CSV - something that 
will be very useful for me.
