reading info from a file (csv / xls) and displaying info

Hi

I have files, either in .txt of .xls format, containing info taken from a device, and delimeted with a coma, which I would like to be able to display in a table format. The problem I have is, the device can take any number of readings, and the operators doesn't always take the same amount of readings. If the operator takes 5 readings, the device creats 5 fields, if he take 28, it creates 28 fields. Now, I want to be able to count the amount of fields, seperated by comma, and then create a table, and display the info.

Can someone please help me with this, as I'm still fairly new to PHP, and the turorials page didn't turn up much

tia
