We usualy use the pipe as a delimiter for non numerical lists Pascal

I have a field that a customer fills out which is a comma delimited list. Ex: wide,very deep,too easy,rugby This is fine, however, if the customer wants to put a comma in the text, it screws up list functions and list loops. Notice the , between very and deep. Ex: wide,very, deep,too easy,rugby So, I say to him, if want to put commans in there, you have to quote the text. Ex: "wide","very, deep","too easy","rugby" OR 'wide','very, deep','too easy','rugby' Well, this didn't work. CF ignors the quotes and treats all commas it finds as delimiters Any ideas how I can allow a comma in the list?
