Open the file this way: File -> Open -> mark the file -> 
-> select File type: Text CSV (*.csv;*.txt), click Open.

Text import dialog window appears. In the "Fields" section, click on a
column, and change "Column type" to "Text" instead of "Standard".
Repeat this for all the columns, and open the file.

Another feature you can turn off is Tools -> Cell Contents -> Autoinput.
