Not to be overly pedantic, but CSV is not a Microsoft-specific format.  CSV stands for "Comma Separated Value" and it's a very simple format.  Lots of software can handle it on all platforms.  I can view them even on my Android phone.

That said, most Windows systems are set up by default to open a CSV file in Excel, but that doesn't really have bearing on the format itself. 

But a csv file is proprietary Microsoft format so can't use that. Many of us are not on Microsoft operating systems. And if you make it just like a cellphone, then you're at the mercy of the radio manufacturer to provide the programming.

Radios needs to behave like phones, plug them into the computer with a USB cable and then simply drag and drop your CSV file into the right folder for the radio to read it.
