Hello 

We have clients sending us xls file. 
We export them as csv files, using commas or semi-colons. as delimiters and then make 
an import in mysql.
Problem : some of the fields, containing texts, have sometimes already a comma or a 
semi-colon in them...and when we import, of course MySql thinks the portion between 2 
commas for example is a table field...

What can we do ? We can't control what the client have typed, neither tell them "Don't 
use , or ;" neither ckeck and modify every xls file

Thanks for any idea
