I am just wondering if the problem is with line termination in 
Workbook1.csv file. I suspect that Excel X puts '\r' as line
terminator (pernicious MacOS habit :) and octave expects '\n'.
You can look with some hexeditor to see what there, also if
program tr available you can do something like:

tr '\r' '\n' < Workbook1.csv > test1.dat

And see if you can read in test1.dat
