Problem Importing Data from a CSV file

I was wondering if someone could point me in the right direction on how to import the following data from a ".csv" file.

my goal is to import this data into matlab and plot this data.

I have tried to use dlmread and csv read and it appears the issue is that the data in the time column is a string.

here is the data that I would like to import:

Time               Pressure
17:59:45;261       81.845337
17:59:45;261       81.845337
17:59:45;261       81.845337
17:59:45;271       81.845337
17:59:45;281       81.845337

try "importdata"... it reads data with string headers.

If you have a relatively recent version of MATLAB, consider using the Import Data tool that is available on the Home tab of the developer window.

You can also use TEXTREAD, as follows:

 [t, p] = textread('myFile.csv', '%s %f', 'delimiter', ' ', 'headerlines', 1) ;
