Hi Lars
You should be able to import all columns in a csv file. In the import dialogue sure that the box "Treat 3rd coordinate value as elevation" is off and that "Include attritbutes from lines with coordiate data" is ticked on.
Does this help?

Hi Lars
I do not fully understand your workflow. If you export a CSV of point data you should get columns of of "x", "y", "attribute". The file you attach is not in that format. I can use Excel to reform the data into X,Y columns (attached as zip) to which you can add an attribute, but somehow I do not think this is your problem.

Geomannie has done the work for you to create a file in a format that GM can read.
Here is a description of how to do this:
I do not see a format offered by Global Mapper that fits your data.
So, some editing is required to convert your data to a format that can be imported by GM.
We need one pair of coordinates per line or row.
When I cut-and-paste your data into EXCEL, all of the data are in cell A1.
(You can use another spreadsheet program, but the steps may named differently.)
Select the cell containing the data (click once on cell A1).
Use the "Text to Columns" function, using the "Delimited" type (not Fixed width), and the comma delimiter.
The cells for Row 1 should now contain one pair of coordinates in each cell.
Transpose the Row 1 cells to Column A cells:
Select Row 1 (click on the row 1 label so the entire row is selected).
Copy the selection (use Ctrl-C or Right-click+Copy)
Click on cell A2, right-click and under Paste Options click on Transpose (point at each of the icons to display the name).
Clean up:
Delete Row A1 (select Row 1, then right-click+Delete)
Edit the first cell to remove "POLYGON((" and leave only the first pair of coordinates)
(the "))" after the last coordinate pair can be left, as GM will ignore them)
Save the file as CSV (or select column A and copy the content to a text file, named CSV or TXT)
Be sure that you close the spreadsheet program, otherwise GM will not be able to load your saved file.
Open the file in GM.
This procedure resulting in an area being drawn in GM. I assumed the UTM projection, using any zone.
You will need to select an appropriate datum, projection and zone.
