Hi, Please keep the discussions on the mailing list so that everyone that wants to see what was discussed can.
https://www.paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView/Data_formats#CSV_.28Comma_Separated_Variable.29_files has information on reading in a csv file into ParaView. From this though you will still need to convert this information into points and then add cells as needed. The ParaView User's Guide is available at https://www.paraview.org/paraview-guide/ and should be able to give you more guidance on what you want to do.
