    Saving as CSV File

    Hello, I have a quick question regarding saving a worksheet as a .csv file.

    The data I have looks something like this:

    1 2
    1 2 3 4 5

    where each number is in a different cell.

    When I save as a csv file, the file i get looks like this:

    1,2,,,,
    1,2,3,4,5

    Is there anyway to not get the blank comma fields like that? Any work arounds? I would like the file to look like:

    1,2
    1,2,3,4,5

    Thank you!

    A csv file should appear like this

    1,2,,,,
    1,2,3,4,5

    because each , represents a column separator when opened with Excel. If you want it as text file instead but with a .csv extension you probably need to write it with VBA.
