So, basically, I need to put a<p> tag at the beginning of each
paragraph, and a</p> tag at the end of each paragraph. I thought
this would be easy, and found the regex info in the help file, but
every time I try to run it, I'm told that the beginning or end of the
paragraph isn't found. It's not finding \n, either. I do have the
"Regular Expressions" and "Current Selection Only" boxes checked. Is
it looking for Writer paragraphs? Is there something else I should be
searching for in Calc?

Not an OOo solution, but I find perl is good for this sort of thing. You
could preprocess your csv before importing into Calc.
Or you could simply use sed in a terminal.
True, not that that comes as standard with windows. He doesn't say what
OS he's using.
(Besides, I've never really got my head round sed :-) Given perl's
portability and its flexibility in pattern matching, it's my own tool of
choice for anything from one-off one-liners to OS maintenance scripts
to.... well, whatever.)
