Shannon,

I wrote a program to do a character count on commas (the delimiter for this

file) for one of the failing records and a couple that did not fail and
there were the same number of commas.  But that was a good thought.



It wasn't just the comma in the description.  If any of the data itself
include double quote characters such as Paul's example of 15", that can also
wreck havoc with comma delimited files.
