Re: How to handle extra double quotes in CSVR4?

Hi Vern,

It does come with source. I was just hoping not to have to reinvent the wheel. Also, I think that since it's a fairly common situation, it's likely that someone else has run into it.

Hi Mark

Do you get the source with this utility? Maybe see what it does with quotes - you might be able to change it to handle this situation.

I don't know, just askin'!

I'm trying to process a .csv file using Scott K's CSVR4 program, but I'm running into an issue where occasionally there's a text field that contains double quotes in the actual text.

Example:
"1","This is a regular title","AAA"
"2",""This is a quoted title"","BBB"

In the second record the double quote pairs seem to throw the processor off. Has anyone run into this? Any solution?
