I am using a program that creates CSV files which I wish to open with Excel. Currently, the CSV files just open as a raw data sheet on my computer. Support folks said I didn't have Excel as my default program to open CSV files; How do I do this?

Thanks, Kevin

Thanks for the quick response ... unfortunately, when I went to "Tools" and then "options' then "applications" ... there is not a selection for csv files .. so no way to create default for Excel??

You can only set an automatic download action for CSV to open with Excel is a website sends such a file with a supported MIME type. In other cases you need to select the application to use. You can set the default application via Windows Explorer to make Firefox offer that as first choice (right click a CSV file > Open With).
