------- Additional comments from [email protected] Tue Sep 29 23:47:55 +0000 2009 ------- According to the standard, "If double-quotes are used to enclose fields, then a double-quote appearing inside a field must be escaped by preceding it with another double quote." See: http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4180 OOo does properly support the standard and import a double quote escaped by a double quote. I recommend that the reporter use a script or macro to transform the input to a valid CSV file before import. Strictly speaking, A backslash is wrong. The requester, however, is asking that OOo be modified to support a method that used to be common. I cannot comment on whether or not this was ever standard, just common. I would be inclined to call this an enhancement request, not a defect report. Test by pasting this into a Calc document: "aaa","b""bb","ccc" "aaa","b\"bb","ccc" --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
