Thanks for the reply!

I'll try and clarify it a bit:

The CSV is ten columns the first row being the header. The rest of the rows are data (mostly text).

Code:

(headerA)   (headerB)   ...
(datax1)     (datay1)     ...
(datax2)     (datay2)     ...

In Word I want a table (1x20) to represent each row, each odd cell being a header and even cell the data from the corresponding cell in the CSV row.

Code:

(TABLE1)
(headerA)
(datax1)
(headerB)
(datay1)
...
(EOF TABLE1)
(TABLE2)
(headerA)
(datax2)
(headerB)
(datay2)
...
(EOF TABLE2)

And then for each row in the CSV I want a new table to be created in the same format.
