The export via .txt gives me a better result in data merge section. That is: beneath oneanother.

If I use CSV I get one complete line like: <<name;address;code;place;state;mail;phone>>
Instead of the separated excel colomns that I get via .txt

Second, also my date format (used text variables) for current date gives me the english time, although my pc system date and time is dutch, I prefer my Indesign to be in English..
But now I end up with 12 August 2015 instead of the Dutch 12 Augustus 2015.

Mmmm….what do I do wrong? Or should I stick to Word, which gives me less options but also less hassle?
