I need to produce a Tab Delimited CSV of a query pulled from a mySql database. I am using MySQL Query Browser to extract the data as ordenery CSV.

Does anyone know how to convert an ordinery — comma seperated — CSV into a Tab Delimited. I can’t find a way to do it in nither Excel nor Open Office.

Manny thanks!

p.s. I’m working on a windows 7 machine.
