I'm attempting to extract data into a CSV where one or more columns may
contain a description that I would like surrounded by quotation marks.
Without any CSVOptions each column of data is enclosed in quotation marks
so I set the field delimiter to blank which effectively eliminates part of
the problem. The query I'm executing is below
*call csvwrite('[some_file_path]','*
* select A, B, description*
* from SOME_TABLE*
* where A like ''x%''*
* order by A, B*
*', 'fieldDelimiter= ');*
Because the descriptions column may have commas in it, i'd like to place
quotes around it and have updated the query as follows
*call csvwrite('[some_file_path]','*
* select A, B, ''"'' || description ''"'' as description*
* from SOME_TABLE*
* where A like ''x%''*
* order by A, B*
*', 'fieldDelimiter= ');*
but the resulting output is
*A,B,Description*
*val1,val2,""some description""*
containing two sets of quotes on each side of the string. Not what I was
expecting, so I tried
*select A, B, chr(34) || description || chr(34) as description*
and the result is the same.
How do I go about producing
*A,B,Description*
*val1,val2,"some description"*
