    Excel eats comma including all the text behind it from CSV file

    Hi all,
    wanted to ask you for help/information how to resolve an issue I have when I open CSV file in Excel 2003.

    I have CSV file with this structure:
    CountryCode|CompanyName|Adress Line 1|Street Number
    US|123 Company|Street 5, block D|25

    This file can be opened by Excel, but in all the places where we can see a comma "," (in above example "Street 5, block D") Excel eats comma including all the text behind it. So the result in the Excel will be:
    CountryCode|CompanyName|Adress Line 1|Street Number
    US|123 Company|Street 5|25

    Is this something in the configuration/settings of the Excel itself?

    Thanks for your advices

    Perhaps change the csv extension to txt and import the file with the wizard where you can choose delimiters
