I don’t use .Net but in the old days, the ADO object model was a convenient way to read a .csv file as a table (ODBC Text Driver). There might be other new ways to parse them that are equally or more convenient.

Have you tried creating and using a streamreader? It is designed for that kind of thing. You can create a data grid and populate it from the streamreader. It isn’t clear from your message whether you want to “display” this in a form or a report.
