          set csvfile to (choose file) as alias
--tell application "Finder" to set parentFolder to container of file csvfile
--tell application "Finder" to set tempname to (parentFolder as string) & (name of csvfile as text)
--display dialog "" & tempname
          tell application "Finder"
                    set theDupe to (duplicate file csvfile) as alias
                    set name extension of theDupe to "txt"
  --display dialog theDupe as string
          end tell
          tell application "Microsoft Excel"
  open text file filename (theDupe as string) data type delimited field info {{1, text format}, {2, text format}, {3, text format}, {4, text format}, {5, text format}, {6, text format}, {7, text format}, {8, text format}, {9, text format}, {10, text format}, {11, text format}, {12, text format}, {13, text format}, {14, text format}, {15, text format}, {16, text format}, {17, text format}, {18, text format}, {19, text format}} other char "|" with use other
