inserting csv - solved, but more to the puzzle

2009-10-16 Thread Patrice Olivier-Wilson
In case anyone might find this of the least interest, probably not, but 
I always hope to add to discussion just as part of the thank you for help.


Further work with same issues found that a file received from a PC based 
client, if opened in PC environment, didn't have the same problems (so 
far) as if opened in a Mac environment. The next file I had to work with 
in this particular project, I opened in PC, then uploaded using 
phpMyadmin with no issues. Same client, same type of file.


So, maybe there is a PC/Mac thing happening to cause the line 17, 
missing commas in csv?


Just a thought. If anyone has any insight, most appreciated.

I've run into similar situations w/regard to Mac vs PC CSV files,
it usually has to do with the EOL character sequence. Macs use
LF (chr(10)), while PCs use CRLF (chr(13)chr(10)).

Thank you for the confirmation, Andy. I appreciate your patience with 
such a newbie who is just trying to learn.
