Take a look at CSVED I use it all the time and it is free... and portable if 
you want that version.

Just had a recent "experience" with excel editing CSV files with German 
addresses in.  German postcodes are all 5 digits so excel updates the column to 
numeric but some valid postcodes start with 0, which it then ignores.  These 
entries then failed the upload to the courier website.  
For editing CSV it is notepad for me all the way. No fancy formatting, just 
text editing.
