Hi Marc The CSV driver has changed and is more rigorous mainly in its handling of quoted fields. So if your CSV file has an umatched quote in the first line then it would treat the following lines as a continuation of that. But normally a CSV export from a spreadsheet would not do that. I'd be very interested to see a copy of the first few lines of your CSV file if you are prepared to zip it up and send it.

I am pretty comfortable with QGIS 1.8 but have just converted from 1.8 to 2.0.1 and apparently have lost my mind as I can't even upload a simple .csv file anymore. I am using OSX (Maverick). I have created my .csv file using excel in the usual way, by saving it from an .xlsx to a .csv as I've done many times in QGIS 1.8. The file is simple, the first row has the headings (DATE,SPECIES,AGE,SEX,GPSX,GPSY,COD) the rest is data but when I'm uploading the file QGIS is not reading each line but is treating all data as one long line of headings and therefore is not finding any data. Help!
