Magic Album - Program Bugs

"Can't open CSV file" when trying to open CSV exported from MtGO (awaiting information)

 

I exported my entire card database from MtGO in CSV format. When attempting to import as my Primary Inventory in Magic Album i get an error message saying, "Can't open CSV file."

Quote from "Help\Import Example.txt"
To import custom inventory you must create CSV file with the following parameters:
1. UTF16 encoding with BOM signature.
2. TAB separators.
3. 6 columns (Set, Name, Version, QtyReg, QtyFoil, Notes).
MS Excel or Access can create such like files.

Most likely MTGO uses different format. But you can open it with spreadsheet app and modify it accordingly. Can you attach an example of what csv MTGO creates?

I didn't see that help file. I'm new to the program. The CSV file from MTGO is attached, but it is obviously not going to work. It's not an option, but would importing an MTGO .dek file into a library be an option in the future? It works fine importing it into a deck. [-o<
