Download Internal Table in CSV format it gets downloaded in single column

Question

Hi All
I am converting Internal Table in CSV format using the FM CONVERT TO CSV FORMAT and then downloading data using GUI_DOWNLOAD FM.
I have given separator as ','.
However when I download the data the file is opened in Excel and first 2 to 3 column are merged in to single column and there was separator shown ';'.
How to overcome this problem.
Amol

hI..,
Check this code..
<b>
It first downloads the data in internal table to a CSV format file..
and then uploads the same data into another internal table and prints it..</b>
analyze this and use accordingly..
tables:
  spfli.
field-symbols : <fs>, <fs1>.
data:
  w_line(1000),
  w_field(20) type c,
  wa_spfli type spfli.
data:
  begin of fs_spfli,
    carrid    type spfli-carrid,
    connid    type spfli-connid,
    countryfr type spfli-countryfr,
    countryto type spfli-countryto,
    fltime    type spfli-fltime,
  end of fs_spfli.
data :
  t_file like standard table
           of w_line
      initial size 0.
data:
  t_spfli like
standard table
       of fs_spfli
  initial size 0.
data:
  t_spfli_up like
    standard table
          of fs_spfli
     initial size 0.
select carrid
       connid
       countryfr
       countryto
       fltime
  into corresponding fields of table t_spfli
  from spfli.
loop at t_spfli into fs_spfli.
  do.
    assign component sy-index of structure fs_spfli to <fs>.
    if sy-subrc ne 0.
      exit.
    endif.
    w_field = <fs>.
    condense w_field no-gaps.
    if sy-index eq 1.
      w_line = w_field.
    else.
      concatenate w_line ',' w_field into w_line.
    endif.
  enddo.
  append w_line to t_file.
endloop.
