In order to separate correctly values when a csv file is opened with MS Excel, add a first line with rep=<separator>. For "," / comma: rep=, For ";" / semicolon: rep=; I don't know if it is a stupid trick but it works like a charm when downloading/opening csv files with MS Excel (I don't know if others)
