Issue with linefeed characters in quoted column data

Open bshields-idatainc opened this issue 9 years ago • 2 comments

I have files with linefeed characters (0x0A) embedded in quoted column data. For example:

"abc","def?ghi","jkl"

where '?' is 0x0A. The app seems to be parsing this OK (the following columns show up in the display), but only the text preceding the linefeed is shown on screen. Using the above example, it data is displayed as:

abc def jkl (missing 'ghi')

This may be a display problem as opposed to a parsing problem...

Can you please confirm this is still the behavior in the latest released version?

Also can you please provide a test case file (zipped please) and a screenshot?

Yes, it is still a problem... (Note the test file was renamed to .txt because GitHub doesn't like that filetype.)
