Top: The csv file, with semi colon separators, was dropped on cell B2 of a table in an open Numbers document. Middle: The csv file, with semi colon separators, was dropped on an unoccupied space on Sheet 1 of the same Numbers document. Bottom: The csv file, with comma separators, was dropped on an unoccupied space on Sheet 1 of the same Numbers document.
Results from dropping the comma separated csv file on a table were essentially the same as the bottom example. From these results it appears " 2. Yes, it does make a difference whether you drop a file on an application icon or on an open document window roughly the equivalent between open and import.
However, if your regional settings are anything other than North American, or they do not comply with the US system of using points for decimal separators, and the csv you're opening does not comply with that format, you are probably better off using Yvan Koenig's or my solution.
Now, accuse me of whatever you want for thinking that a drag-and-drop soltution that merely changes the destination of the drop is "better" than a solution that involves fiddling with system settings. I'm fine with whatever side that coin drops but this is where the chronological reading comes in. I do, however, take offense with the "some regions" remark - from where I'm sitting, "some regions" would include the just about entire continent of Europe and then some.

There is nothing you can do in Numbers to change it. Without changing your regional settings, I'm not sure how you fix the "csv" file. From what I see in the "US" settings, a csv file only has quotes around text or numbers that have a comma in them.
Maybe that's what you are seeing? What regional setting country are you using? I'll try it out and see if I can recommend something. Dec 4, PM. I'm in Denmark, so a standard CSV-file uses semicolon as field seperator. This is basically because our floating point seperator is a comma, not a dot we write ,45 - not Everything is in the first column. However - if I drag the file onto an open spreadsheet, it works. Editing a CSV-file in a text editor is a bad idea however.
Doing a search and replace might break the file - or the content. You need some regular expression to only match the field seperators, not the same characters which might exists inside quotes the string delimiter.
And string delimiters are only needed if the string contains special characters line break, field or string delimiter. Anyway - try dragging the file onto a new, open spreadsheet. Sep 27, AM.
