I can hardly see anything in that screenshot. A list of fields (preferably with their MP3tag names) would be much nicer.

I do not doubt that you tried but for further support it would be very helpful if you told us what you tried esp. in repect to the export script showing the code, the steps you took to create the CSV file, the settings that you used in excel to import the data.  
Also, a search in the forum might give an answer straight away:

I would assume that some time later you want to import the data again, so please make sure that you know the intricacies and what to look out for when importing data from text files:

> Sir, I have generated Music.txt from iTunes. Now when I checked music files using Mp3Tag, then I found that many files are not have names of Composers. How can I replace the names of missing "Composers" only where the Filename.Mp3 with location path are same [of iTunes & %\_folderpath%%\_filename\_ext%]. for example if the song at: G:\iTunes\Music\Jis Desh Mein Ganga Behti Hai\Jis Desh Mein Ganga Behti Hai\31 Aa Ab Laut Chalen.mp3 is same as Mp3Tags i.e. %\_folderpath%%\_filename\_ext% is not…
