 ## Description

 I want to change the default field delimiter when exporting the Grid to CSV file. How to set a different list separator?
 
 I want to use a semicolon field delimiter for the exported CSV Grid instead of comma. How to achieve this?
 
->tip At the time of writing (**UI for Blazor 3.5.0**), the Blazor Grid [does not expose a built-in option for configuring the field delimiter](https://feedback.telerik.com/blazor/1577167-option-to-configure-the-field-delimiter-when-exporting-to-csv). You may vote for the enhancement and follow it to receive status updates.

 ## Solution
 
-A possible option is to manually modify the exported CSV file before it reaches the client to change the field delimiter.
+Modify the exported CSV file before it reaches the user to change the field delimiter.
 
-For that purpose use the [`RadSpreadProcessing`](https://docs.telerik.com/devtools/document-processing/libraries/radspreadprocessing/overview) library - it allows you to create spreadsheets from scratch, modify existing documents or convert between the most common spreadsheet formats. In this case, we will focus on the [`CsvFormatProvider` which exposes setting to configure the field delimiter](https://docs.telerik.com/devtools/document-processing/libraries/radspreadprocessing/formats-and-conversion/csv/settings).

 1. Handle the [Grid `OnAfterExport` event](slug:grid-export-events#onafterexport). The `Stream` it provides is finalized, so that the resource does not leak. Its binary data, however, is available, so you can copy the stream bytes to a new `MemoryStream` instance.
