Subject: Importing CSV, or tab delimited files
It's a weird one (version 5.1):
1. Open .csv file (File | Open)
- After selecting .csv file, you will get a "Text Import" dialog
with your data in a window at the bottom. Make sure the import
parameters are correct. Click OK.

2. Highlight your data. Copy it to the clipboard.

3. Open your spreadsheet.

4. Paste the contents of the clipboard.

Regards,

George
