Posts: 386                Best title I could come up with. Okay so here is the 
problem I am running into. I have a field in my database (SQLite) that stores 
in BLOB. It's essentially a notes section within my application. The data gets 
stored just fine but when I try to export it I get a funky out put. See Below:

I00701,2010-01-25,2010-02-22,107764,107970,00:00:00,0.1,99999999,28,0.736,20.6,201002,0.94,,,,,"Number
 of use days have changed from Use Days to 28.
Use per day has changed from 25.982 to 0.736.
Usage has changed from Meter Use to 20.600.
Meter Cost has changed from 33.45 to 0.94.",Automatic,,,,
I11501,2010-01-26,2010-02-22,21820,21820,00:00:00,10,999999,27,0,0,201002,0,,,,,,Automatic,,,,

The output (it's a CSV format) above is what I get, below is what I want: (I 
made some edits for formatting)

I00701,2010-01-25,2010-02-22,107764,107970,00:00:00,0.1,99999999,28,0.736,20.6,201002,0.94,,,,,"#
 of use days changed from 46 to 28. UPD changed from 25.982 to 0.736. Usage 
changed from 65.250 to 20.600. Meter Cost changed from 33.45 to 
0.94.",Automatic,,,,

So the problem is in the area in blue above. When I export the BLOB field 
apparently assumes the line break or new line from pressing enter, is a new 
element for the CSV. I don't know how to test for this let alone how to correct 
it so I get the desired output. I don't really know how else to explain it. If 
I could attach a sample of the data file that I am getting that might help.
