Lori,

It is confusing why the default column termination symbol for CSV is a semi-colon when a comma is expected ("comma-separated values").
I agree it's confusing but the semi-colon is there by default for a reason: this is the character that Excel expects and we can't deny that most users will use Excel to read back this file.
I though this is reason for having CSV and CSV for Excel. So having CSV by default separated by comma would make sense.
