 Assuming the CSV file is for a 2D curve:
-  * Open CSV file in text editor (with GREP functionality)
-  * add a third column to the data ('',0'' for example) to make the data 3D. This is what Fusion expects.
+For ex:
-    * before: ''5.23,1.87''
+<code>
-    * after: ''5.23,1.87,0''
+.36,22.16
+.54,22.24
+.72,22.32
+.89,22.40
+</code>
+  * Open CSV file in a text editor (with Regular Expressions functionality)
+  * add a third column of placeholder numbers to the file ('',0'' for example) to make the data 3D. This is what Fusion expects.
+    * Search & replace pattern in BBEdit:
+      * Search: ''(^.*$)''
+      * Replace: ''\1,0''
+After a replace-all:
+<code>
+.36,22.16,0
+.54,22.24,0
+.72,22.32,0
+.89,22.40,0
+</code>
   * In Fusion 360, go to ''Utilities > Add-Ins''
   * Under the ''Scripts'' tab, Run ''ImportSplineCSV'' & open the changed CSV file.
