We don't use CSV export, but AFAIK the semicolon is a common delimiter  
for CSV files (the most common one being the comma). Usually you set  
the delimiter when importing data.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comma-separated_values says: "CSV is one  
implementation of a delimited text file, which uses a comma to  
separate values (where many implementations of CSV import/export tools  
allow an alternate separator to be used; as is shown in the MS Access  
screen shot, below)."
