I do this manually with one of my files.
1) Back up your template!!!
2) Open the .csv file with Excel
3) Delete the columns you don't want and save the result with a temporary name as an .xls file.
4) Open the temporary .xls file, highlight the column or columns you want to copy, select "copy", open the template .xls file, highlight the columns to be replaced, and select "paste".
5) If the columns are not next to each other, you'll have to do this one column at a time.
6) Don't forget to make a backup before you start! It's easy to mess up with a manual process.
