    Help with Pipe Delimited File

    I have a CSV file that is pipe delimited. I saved the file as txt and am converting it into Excel 2003. I have 2 problems with the file. It is pipe delimited, but one column has a pipe in it and I need that column to NOT split. The other problem is that in any fields that have commas in them, it is replacing the comma with a weird symbol. Any help would be appreciated.

    Hello dgrimes1,

    It would help to see the text file and have more details about how you are importing the file: by wizard, macro, etc.
    Sincerely,
