csv export delimiting

Hi all

I'm using a single master band with no header or footer.

I have 3 memo fields, fitted right next to each other. (all fkText)

Print and view is fine.

When I export to csv it works fine if all the memos contain data

I any of these memos are blank/NULL, the export component uses a semi column ';' as the delimiter instead of the specified comma ','. But if the memos contain data then it correctly uses the comma

Using version 4.9 for C++

I'd like the data to be consistent and be delimited with the comma no matter if the field is empty or not.


Thank you

Mark

    I've tested and tested and are pretty sure this is a bug.

    A memo with a single space will delimit with the specified comma. A memo without (NULL) delimits with a semi column.

    Could I have some confirmation on this please?

    CSV does stand for COMMA Separated Values.

    I have encountered the same problem before, and I think it is a bug as well.

    Thanks for the reply Peter.

    I've now upgraded to v4.10 and the problem appears to have been rectified although I can find no mention of it in the release notes.
