But that's not an HTML table... The HTML table would need <TR>'s & <TH/TD> as well.
We are starting to convert some of our files to XML vs CSV that THAT's overhead. All that extra room for the tags on EACH line vs just a header line at the top of the file. For importing, csv I would think would be far easier than HTML, or XML for that matter. Guess XML has it's advantages when you have a record that has hundreds of fields and you only want to update one or two, that's all you need, aside from that so what if there are a bunch of ,,,,,, on a line to mean nothing.
