There is no quick fix for something like this. You are welcome to fix this. Attention should also be paid to multiple user configurable field separators for varchar, longvarchar etc. which should still work after the changes.

So I think this means 2 changes need to be made to Text table support: 1) If a varchar or longvarchar column contains a linebreak sequence, then it needs to get quoted on output. This duplicates Excel's behavior, I believe. 2) While the parser is looking for the end of the current row, it must ignore linebreak sequences inside a quoted column. Would anyone know how to fix this quickly? Or should I try to figure out how to fix this & submit a patch for (hopeful) inclusion in 1.7.1? -=- D.
