Another case to be wary of is if you have double quotes in your text. They are encoded in the CSV as 2 double quotes.
So for example: name story George He said, "Hello!" Jeff I agree with George Would be encoded as: "name","story" "George","He said, ""Hello!""" "Jeff","I agree with George" In this scenario, Christopher's grep works, but Ronald's fails. CSV can be surprisingly difficult to work with since it overuses the comma and double-quote. Be careful when converting large files that whatever you try works in the odd cases. Also, consider whether newlines might be included with quotes. I have to move on to other work, so can't help further right now, but thought I should give you the warning to be careful. -- This is the BBEdit Talk public discussion group.
