Greetings, Ludwig.
Thanks for your offer of help.
However, I have no idea how to use the script.
I have only used Qgis a few times.

Hi Mike,
there are probably several solutions for your problem. Below a script,
which uses the imported csv-layer and creates a memory layer for each
feature.
# active-layer = csv-import-layer
vl = iface.activeLayer()
# the group for the single-point layers in Layer-Panel
target_group = QgsProject.instance().layerTreeRoot().addGroup('group_1')
# iterate through the csv-import-layer
for f in vl.getFeatures():
# create a clone of this layer with only one feature
vl_clone =
vl.materialize(QgsFeatureRequest().setFilterFids([f.id()]))
# set the name for the new layer, here using the attribute 'name'
of the csv-import-layer
# adapt if necessary or create another name
vl_clone.setName(f['name'])
# parameter 2 False => dont't add to layerTreeRoot...
QgsProject.instance().addMapLayer(vl_clone,False)
# ...but to the above created group
target_group.insertLayer(-1, vl_clone)
Note: the script creates temporary memory-layers, which you must
convert to permanent layers (context-menu > Make Permament)

Greetings,
I was successful in adding lat/long points to my project from a .cvs
file:
Lat,Long,Mile
-79.924454,39.709589,M 1
-79.936296,39.698546,M 2
-79.939802,39.68499,M 3
etc.
When the points are added to my project all the of them are in one
layer that contains all the points.
I wish to have all the points as separate layers contained in a Group.
How can I accomplish this?
Thanks,
WV-Mike
