OK, it was working perfectly when I just made sure that my csv file is in utf-8 encoding format.
I deleted some of my programm, so I had to write a lot of stuff again. If I now upload a csv file which is in utf-8 format and then I have every time in the first row that the first three character are: \xEF \xBBxBF I read that these is something about unicode and ordering, but i don't know where these hex chars come from. Also every german special character is also shown in this hex code, e.g. "k\xC3\xBChler" should be "kühler" If I use files in other encodings there are not these three chars in the beginning, but every special char is "?" Has anyone an idea where this comes from? Cheers, Sebastian On 22 Jun., 13:26, Sebastian <sebastian.go...@googlemail.com> wrote: > file.temp is an object.
