Hi,

You have a great resource of examples here:
http://www.openlayers.org/dev/examples/

Check the markersTextLayer.html example to have an example of a layer 
that comes from a csv file.
(http://www.openlayers.org/dev/examples/markersTextLayer.html)

There's also use gml (see the gml-layer.html) if you prefer xml files.
