[Tutor] How to avoid error message: "_csv.Error: new-line character seen in unquoted field - do you need to open the file in universal-newline mode?"

[Judith Flores]

Hello,

   I get the error message above quite often when trying to open some csv 
files. I noticed that if I open the csv file in excel and delete the "empty" 
columns at the right end of my data, the error message doesn't appear.

My code looks like this:

myfile=open(csvfile)
reader=csv.reader(myfile)
header=reader.next()

Thank you,

Judith

Let me know if you would like to have some of my csv files.
