I'm not sure I understand.  Are you indicating that in Windows when you 
select a file with a .csv ending it automagically opens in excel?

I personally don't find that comforting.  I prefer to be asked what I 
would like to open a file in.  Of course this is a matter of 
configuration in both OS's.

For me, Microsoft tools all to often make decisions for me that are not 
the right answer.
