Greetings,And Help! having a problem with my data, most of the cells in the TEXT columns are un-formatted, identifiable by excel or open and I can not change the format.General format as ************************on one of the text columns when downloading, the header has, <p>Description</p> ( new I think)nothing seams to be different in the PHP code, I thing, The collation should be lantin1_swedish_ci , on all, right?This is what I get in the fields "<p>jack and Jill went up the hill</p>"even after I delete the " and save the spreadsheet. you don't see them but there there.When importing I get"jack and Jill went up the hill"Any help at all would be gratefully appreciated ....CynthiaV/r |

Looks like somethings trying to use xml - could be that it's delimiting the column to cater for a separator being present.Or could be an html paragraph tag. Maybe it's trying to cater for multiple paragraphs in the field.==========================================Cursors are useful if you don't know sql.SSIS can be used in a similar way.Beer is not cold and it isn't fizzy. |

A Cursors what's that, how would that work, not now, how about a gun to the head..would any updates, make these changes to my Cpanel. I been doing the same thing for years import / export with no problems.It has to be that I am downloading this "thing",should I check to see if a box to delimit when downloading has been checked and un-check it.. |

This wouldn't be mysql 5.0 would it? The sql here stands for sql server.I suspect this is a php issue.==========================================Cursors are useful if you don't know sql.SSIS can be used in a similar way.Beer is not cold and it isn't fizzy. |
