Possible solution to SYLK error when creating a CSV file

I was using some code that had worked before to create a CSV from
dataset, but when I went to open the file in Excel it complained that
it couldn't load it.

"X.csv is a SYLK file, but cannot load it."

Whatever...

So, after screwing around with the file in notepad for a while trying
to figure out what it didn't like, it turns out that these errors
would happen if I had "ID" as the first column header. Change it to
"ASDF" and everything works as expected.

How stupid.
