<p>Not to be overly pedantic, but CSV is not a Microsoft-specific
format. CSV stands for "Comma Separated Value" and it's a very
simple format. Lots of software can handle it on all platforms.
I can view them even on my Android phone.</p>
<p>That said, most Windows systems are set up by default to open a
CSV file in Excel, but that doesn't really have bearing on the
format itself. <br>

<p>But a csv file is proprietary Microsoft format so can't use
that. Many of us are not on Microsoft operating systems. And if
you make it just like a cellphone, then you're at the mercy of
the radio manufacturer to provide the programming.</p>
