CSV file - numbers question

Gurus,

I have the following file in csv format, to be convert from cvs to excel.

abc,summer,tennis,123456789,winter
clearsky,fall,computer,43322,monitor

I need to place commas on numbers so that they be read properly in excel.
The number column output I need to see in excel should have for numbers
as follows

abc summer tennis 123,456,789 winter
clearsky fall computer 43,322 monitor

The problem I have is, if I place commas like 123,456,789 in csv file and export it then it would consider each of these digits as a separate column and that would mess up the output.



PS: I am using csv2excel scrip to convert to excel.

Any ideas would be appreciated.

NAME
processcsv.py - process virt-top CSV files SUMMARY
virt-top --csv data.csv processcsv.py < data.csv DESCRIPTION
virt-top is a top(1)-like utility for showing stats of virtualized domains. processcsv.py is a simple Python script that post-processes the output of "virt-top --csv". It is used like this: virt-top --csv data.csv processcsv.py < data.csv The second command will overwrite the following files in the current directory: "global.csv" This contains the global (host) statistics columns from the CSV file. "domainNN.csv" (multiple files) For each libvirt domain ID NN, a file is created containing the per-domain statistics from the CSV file. SEE ALSO
