You will find that Excel will put the quotation marks around a field of text
where it needs to, ie where the text contains a comma, and doesn't do so in other cases, as it is not necessary. For eg if you opened the csv file in Note pad you would see something like: xx, yy yy, "xx,xx" The first two strings do not need the quotation marks, but the third does as it contains the delimiter used in the csv file, ie a comma. -- Helena James "Frank Matheis" wrote: Hi there, we have a XLS (Excel 2007) file and want to save it as *.csv in the format like "datarecord";"datarecord2";"..... but Excel only uses ; and no " signs between the data.
