I have a CSV file with columns separated with commas(,)but I want to have all columns separated as in any regular Excel file, how can I do this?

Thanks.
 
I take it you want a regular XL file from a CSV file.

In that case simple, open in Excel go to save as and save as an XLS file.

Hi,

...and I want my water to be DRY. How can I do THAT?

A CSV file is a...

file.

How can a CSV be anything else? If you change that format, it ceases to be a CSV file.

If you IMPORT the CSV into a workbook and SaveAs an XLS, then it become a WORKBOOK and it ceases to be a CSV file.
