csv problem with odbc

Lon
My csv file has rows like this:
"col1","col2","col3","col4","col5"
"04/04/2005 01:05:07.576","0","0","0","0"

And I am using this code to read the file:

Dim Conn As OdbcConnection

Dim dt As New DataTable

Dim da As OdbcDataAdapter

Dim strConnstr, strImportfolder, strFilename As String

strImportfolder = "D:\"

strFilename = "filename.csv"

'this is the csv file to be imported

strConnstr = "Driver={Microsoft Text Driver (*.txt; *.csv)};Dbq=" &
strImportfolder & "\;"

Conn = New Odbc.OdbcConnection(strConnstr)

da = New Odbc.OdbcDataAdapter("select * from [" + strFilename + "]", Conn)

da.Fill(dt)

MsgBox(dt.Rows(0).Item(0).ToString)

Console.WriteLine(dt.Columns(0).ToString)

Console.WriteLine(dt.Rows.Count)

Dim colnm As DataColumn

For Each colnm In dt.Columns

Console.Write(colnm.ColumnName)

Next

Strange enough I only see 1 colomnname

When I change the comma's to semicolumns I see all the column name's....

How can I get this to work with the comma's instead of first need to change
the file..
Thanx
