How do I export a comma delimited text file to an excel file using vb.net?

I want to take a comma delimited text file and export it to excel
format, using the comma as the delimiter.

Any help on this would be great, thank you.

Perhaps I'm missing something, but csv is a format excel understands - why
dont you just rename the file with an excel extension and excel will know
how to open it.
