From the customer I got a csv-file, but it is all one mess. How can I get a table out of it?

You should then see a table displaying the imported data in a preview - you may, possibly need to change the value separator to a semi-colon (;) depending on what the client has selected as separator.

I would then save the resulting file as Excel (.xls og .xlsx) before opening it in your WFP CAT (if you want to translate it, that is).

Hope this works for you!
