I used the default csv.writer into a StringIO, and the whole was then returned as the response of an HTTP request (with the proper Content-Type and Content-Disposition headers). I assume quoting is enabled by default? > And of course how non-Excel applications handle that data on import > can be different from how Excel handles it. Of course, but when three major spreadsheet software (including Excel itself) choke on the embedded newline, there might be a problem (or not :)). (please note that as for Excel I couldn't test myself, a client of mine did) Regards Antoine. _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
