Hi all,
I have a current issue where i need to import a CSV file into one of our systems. I understand the best support for unicode is in C11 but is there a way to import a unicode based csv file using the BASIC driver and some combination of driver strings?
Thanks,
Justin

Depending on How unicode it is. ie UTF8 is essentially ASCII so should
just work.

Other than that. Have a look at Capesofts String theory. It has methods
for dealing with Unicode and for playing with CSV files

Thanks Sean, Capesoft's string theory did the trick! I used the ToAnsi function to change the encoding from unicode to ansi and whala!
Sad thing is I had purchased string theory for other templates as it was a prerequisite but not used any of its functions. Might do a full review to see what else I am missing out on :)
Thanks again!
Cheers,
