Gnumeric (an open source spreadsheet) has a great dialog box that pops up and lets you tell it exactly how to parse the tab delimited / csv file you just handed it. It even has a preview of what your parsing options will do to the file you're opening. Also, "gnumeric foo.csv" does the right thing from the command line.
