AFAIK, 1. If you are on a MAC and have all MAC-formatted files, don't set csv_eol at all, DBD::CSV should do the right thing. 2. If you are on a MAC and have all DOS formatted files, set csv_eol to \015\012. 3. If you are on a MAC and have mixed files a. convert them all to one format before processing (recommended) or b. for the files that you know are DOS formatted, set csv_eol to \015\012 and do not set it all for the MAC formatted files > All well and good, except that the file is generated by a whole suite of > perl scripts So use the scripts to put a MAC eol in the file and forget about csv_eol in the report generating scripts. -- Jeff
