I think you might have to use a regex on it first.

Find everything between " " first, and replace the comma's with
something else, maybe a period or something.

I'll look around and see if I can find a better way to do it.

Subject: Get everything between " " in a CSV file.


Can someone help me out here. I have a cvs file being uploaded
and am having trouble with one of the fields. It a field that *can*
contain
comments and therefore have a comma in it. I'm dumping it into the
database and 
everything is hunky dorie until a comma is put in the comment field. I
notice 
the csv file puts this field  like this "This is a comment, and another 
comment,and another"... I would like to find all commas between the two
" " and 
temporarily change the commas to something else so it doesn't think its
another 
field...

 Using the ListChangeDelims function doesn't get it because it changes
those 
commas in the comment also.


 
 Thanks,

- Tracy
