This is changing your script from good to bad. This is exactly what you should NOT do. The trailing ^M is part of the field and should not be removed.

Use the comma-counting code from Narveson, and check if the lines that have a trailing ^M also have less comma's than the lines that seem to be correct. Note that even that is unreliable, as comma's can be part of a field when correctly quoted.

Best way to find the problematic lines (if any) is to call the new () constructor with no arguments at all, and see where the parsing stops. Then use Text::CSV's diagnostics to see what caused the stop.


Enjoy, Have FUN! H.Merijn
