Gregory,

i had a similiar question today. 
Just put one of the following lines
set the filetype to "????CSV"           
set the filetype to "XCELCSV"
in the script before you write the file. 

???? means the CSV file is opened in the default application set in the 
system´s preferences.XCEL means  the file is assigned to be opened by Excel ( 
if installed).

HTH,

Matthias
