Escaping quotes and delimiters in CSV files with Excel -


i try import csv file in excel, using ; delimiters, columns contains ; and/or quotes.

my problem : can use double quotes ignore delimiters specific string, if there double quote inside string, ignores delimiters until first double quote, not after. don't know if it's clear, it's not easy explain.

i try explain example :

suppose have string this a;test : use double quotes around string, ignore delimiter => works.

now if string contains delimiters , double quotes : trick doesn't work anymore. example if have string this; is" a;test : added double quotes around string ignore delimiters first part (the delimiter in part this; is correctly ignored, since there double quote after, excel doesn't ignore next delimiter in a;test part.

i tried best clear possible, hope you'll understand problem.

when reading in quoted string in csv file, excel interpret pairs of double-quotes ("") single double-quotes(").

so "this; is"" a;test" converted 1 cell containing this; is" a;test

so replace double-quotes in strings pairs of double quotes.

excel reverse process when exporting csv.

here csv

a,b,c,d,e """test1""",""",te"st2,"test,3",test"4,test5

and how looks after importing excel:
