And...as I keep telling people, the real solution is to use the "Data - > From Text" option when importing CSV into Excel, not to just open it. https://www.hesa.ac.uk/support/user-guides/import-csv

Anyway, this thread seems to have veered from the original problem... :-)

Thanks for the clarification :-)

BTW I'm building my own Archi maintenance scripts now so I don't have to use Excel :-)

What's the real, underlying, use case here? Is it manipulating the data? Is CSV just a means to get at the data? Would a scripting language provide a better solution?

I start to use scripting to manipulate data (import from other sources, export to TiddlyWiki, repair/change things in the model, simple reporting etc.).  I use LINQPad (licensed version with debugger), so I personally don't need a builtin scripting language.
