Looks like you have the tables/csv addon installed but I suspect that
to load it you did:
load 'csv' NB. or require
By default this will load the "old" version csv code from
~system\packages\files\csv.ijs
PUBLIC_j_{~ (<'csv') (i.~ {."1) PUBLIC_j_
+---+------------------------------+
|csv|~system\packages\files\csv.ijs|
+---+------------------------------+
You can make sure that you are loading the addon version like this:
load 'tables/csv'
If you want to to force a J602 installation to use the addon version
instead of the "old" version when you use ( load 'csv' ) then the
Installation section of
http://www.jsoftware.com/jwiki/Addons/tables/csv explains how to do
that.
