------- Additional comments from guido...@openoffice.org Mon Jul 26 12:52:33 +0000 2010 ------- Thanks for letting me know about RFC4180. It's weird that the original spec clearly stated that leading and trailing blanks (I should have specified) were going to be trimmed, while the RFC states the opposite. But, at least, it's a formal spec (although with that RFC name...) and so it's better to stick to it. But your implementation non only does not follow RFC 793 [8], but violates also RFC4180 [5]: "If fields are not enclosed with double quotes, then double quotes may not appear inside the fields." It means that the program should have taken everythig between the quotes and treated it as a single field. The import dialog for CSV files is useless, since a CSV file is what we are talking about. Other formats, that use tabs, semicolon or other field delimiters are not CSV. Thanks for your prompt and informative answer. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
