I have a csv source file with comma (,) delimiter and values are enclosed with double quotes (") and using Text file Input to read the data in PDI 8.3. I am using , in Separator and " in Enclosure options in Content tab.
However, there is a field that contains quotes within the double quotes in the values itself, see the example below:
"abc","cde",
"abc" - 1st col
"cde" - 2nd col
"ef"A"gh" - 3rd col
"ijk" - 4th col and so on..
And issue in the 3rd col, in output it's reading "ef" as 3rd col and remaining values is passing to the next subsequent col. Hope I am able to clarify the issue here, only Expecting to escape the " within the values.
I have tried " in the Escape option but it's not working. Can someone please suggest how to handle this.
Thanks!
You can just leave the Enclosure attribute empty. That way the string will only be divided into columns by the Delimiter.

I'm currently programming a VBA Code for iMacros,
therefore I need to have the following string:
TAG POS=1 TYPE=BUTTON:SUBMIT ATTR=TXT:Find<SP>Facebook<SP>ID<SP>→
but, if I copy this code into the VBA Code Editor in Excel 2013, I get the following:
TAG POS=1 TYPE=BUTTON:SUBMIT ATTR=TXT:Find<SP>Facebook<SP>ID<SP>?
The character → is not readable for VBA and rewrites it as a ?
I would use the string like this in my code, to send it to iMacros:
macro = macro + "TAG POS=1 TYPE=BUTTON:SUBMIT ATTR=TXT:Find<SP>Facebook<SP>ID<SP>→" + vbNewLine
How can I still send the right string to iMacros?
I tried to add the character as a Hexadecimal number to add it to the string, but didn't figure really out how it could work..
Do you have any idea how I can use the character → in VBA?
Simply use:
macro = macro + "TAG POS=1 TYPE=BUTTON:SUBMIT ATTR=TXT:Find<SP>Facebook<SP>ID<SP>" & ChrW(8594) & vbNewLine
;)
Hint: The "compiler" simply does not support double byte characters (still they can be inside a string). And ChrW(8594) is →. If you get problems with other chars, you can use ?AscW(Range(#)) (# is the cell that has that character at the first position) to get the code for ChrW() to recreate it.
I need to check if a string from a word document contains a paragraph character. I want to only extract the text without the paragraph character. Is There a constant for the paragraph character? I tried checking for vbnewLine and vbCrLF, but these didn't work.
Have a look at the wikipedia article on newlines.
In total there are 3 characters indicating a new line (in some context), and sometimes they are used in combinations.
I think it does not matter which ones Word uses and which ones it doesn't; You want them all gone.
So, I'd say run through all characters and remove all LF, CR and RS instances, or replace them by spaces (whilst avoiding double spaces)
everytime i try the space then underscore + enter it doesnt work and it lights up red
edit - like for example this is a comment:
'you must add such and such to this variable and then you must declare it'
say i have that for a comment and i want to break the comment after variable. when i do this
'you must add such and such to this variable _
and then you must declare it'
it gives me an error
The underscore at the end of the line trick doesn't work for comments. The underscores are treated as part of the comment.
To create a bunch of single line comments at once, select the lines you want to comment out and press CTRL+K then CTRL+C
A line continuation consists of at least one white-space character that immediately precedes a single underscore character as the last character (other than white space) in a text line.
Ref.
Doesn't apply to comments though; if you want multiple comment lines simply start a new comment for each subsequent line.
The quotation marks (apostrophe to be more specific) single and double are displaying as question mark on my text view.
The problem come up when I try to copy and paste some thing from a webpage and save it.
This problem does not happen when I type the sentence.
How can I replace a apostrophe with a regular single quote?
When you copy from a webpage you are not copying a plain old apostrophe. You are copying a fancy one that looks very similar but is not. Since the text view only displays plain text it cannot understand your fancy apostrophe.
When you copy from a webpage you will have to manually delete and retype the apostrophes.
You have to do a string replace probably with unicode characters. The following may be the characters that you want to replace:
Char Unicode HTML
“ 8220 “
‘ 8216 ‘
” 8221 ”
’ 8217 ’
