I will check that out later tonight. I am pretty sure I have those Office
2000 converters installed. I even have 2007 converters installed.


I was correct. Everything under "Converters and Filters" are installed.



Do children or other saboteurs use this computer? People who mess things up
and then claim they don't know how it happened, sort of like politicians
testifying in court? If yes, I'd back up all the data, reformat the hard
disk, and reinstall the OS. But, that's just me.

If my computer was having this problem, I'd try importing the CSV file into
Access. If that works, you could always export it to another type of file
that Excel would be happy with.

Or, uninstall & reinstall Office.

Nope. Just me. I can tell you Office installation is pretty old (4/4/2004).

Yeah, if it gets worse or I get desperate.
