CSV Files are not formatted files. They are just plain text files. You cannot change the formatting.

It should be possible to create an Excel document programmatically and do any formatting in there. With regards to the Excel you can create using ADO.NET or through automating Excel. I think automating Excel will give you the best chance of formatting the document. As Shuja Ali mentioned a CSV is just a plain text file in which the data is separated by commas. No special formatting in there...
