Re: Comma seperated value file processing

Beware of fields holding text that contain commas as the unstring will not
adjust for this contingency.  For example, the following line would mess up
the UNSTRING command

one,two,three,"four, and five",six

good luck

I have to read a comma seperated value file.  What would be the OPEN & READ
commands required to achieve this?

Thanks for your help?
