I believe that if there were a complete solution in regex, it would show up pretty high on Google, so I am now, still, of the opinion that the complete csv problem is beyond regex, even though the simpler cases can be done fairly easily. I'd be delighted if someone could change that opinion.




Alex,

I did the same... although I was quick to create a simple regex that would parse simple CSV, it would fail for many cases, I trying to refine the damn thing using lookaheads, negations and all sorts of regex juggling but no good, all I've got as a nice "Revolution app force quited" message when the PCRE engine decided to that I was to dumb for him and went down in flames.

I think it's easier to use normal string routines in transcript and build yourself a parser.... damn....
