Its not clear if you have the logging part working, if not and you use windows then Gobetwino may make this task easier for you: Gadgets og teknologi | Dansk Tech Blog - Mikmo

Probably the easiest way to handle the time field is to print the time (the output from the now() function) as a decimal value within your comma separated data and convert to Excel format in Excel.

You can find a formula for converting the Time format here:
