    Error message when saving a csv file

    Hi

    This is the code I am using :

    Please Login or Register  to view this content.
    I basically want the user to tell the computer where to save the csv file to. It appears to save ok but when I go to open the csv file just saved, an error message is presented as follows:

    The file you are trying to open "example.csv" is in a different format than specified by the file extention. Verify that the file is not corrupted and is from a trusted source before opening the file. Do you want to open the file ?

    Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

    Can anyone help me with this one, All I want is for the user to save the file in csv format without any errors on reopening the csv through explorer ?

    Thanks in advance
