to be pedantic, you need to do more than double quote the values, in case the value themselves contain a double quote. and then, importing gets even more messy, since the values may or may not be quoted. anyway, I've published the component here: https://github.com/miyako/4d-component-csv >

not sure if Excel supports it, (FileMaker does) but the formal way to include multiple lines in a TSV field is to use the vertical tab character Char(11). (side-note: Char(11) shows up as \v in the debugger, although you can't it in literal text) if you are interested I can share a set of

We normally export CRs as some kind of unique escape sequence (like "#13" or so) that can be easily replaced by CRs in Excel. That way the export data can be handled without problems in all systems that allow for global search Cheers, Tilman extragroup GmbH Pottkamp 19 48149 Münster
