Use comma (,) as field separator instead of semi-colon (;) #2

@apoloniarakow @monlafon This might be an option to select when saving the file to CSV in Excel.

The 1997 Annex H data uses the ',' while the 1994 data uses ';'. Maybe you can try to replicate the settings used for 1997 Annex H.

In order to make the CSV file display as a table on GitHub, like here, the separator between columns must be a colon (,), not a semi-colon (;).

1994, emissions annexII, and emissions page 5 have been uploaded through OpenOffice with the comma corrections, let me know if it works.

Yes, thanks. I close the issue.
