Hi,

this is not related to csv, its Qlikview Standard.

Qlikview remember the first read format, here 0002, then when 2 is read, Qlikview is so "smart" that he "convert" this to 0002. If you read 2 first, then CH value will get 2 also, try if you dont belive

So if you do as Frank mention, then It will Works for you.
