Hi to all. I tried to build a simple analysis system for CSV report by Google AdSense, but Gnumeric said that it can't import this file because is unknow format. If I do ~$ file report.csv from command line /bin/file said: "report.csv: MPEG ADTS, layer I, v1, 96 kBits, 44.1 kHz, Stereo" I tried to ~$ cat report.csv | awk '{print $1,$2,$n...}' > myreport.csv, but myreport.csv is same file of report.csv. It's a binary file! If I do ~$ strings report.csv result is an empty file! Can you help me? I can't share my CVS file report, because Google policy about it forbids that, but if want I can edit this by hand with non true data, and attach this onto mail message.
Hi, CSV files (comma separated values) are text files. If you look into the file using cat or less or more you should see straight text. If you don't then your file is _not_ a csv file. Andreas -- Andreas J. Guelzow Taliesin Software, Shelties, Pyr Sheps and Shetland Sheep
