I'm trying to merge a data document with a template document and Nisus is coming back with an error shown below. I tracked the problem to the double quotes in the CSV file. When no quotes at all are used, it merges OK, but when a value is wrapped in double straight quotes, it bombs. My values have commas in them so I have to use quotes. Anyone else experiencing this trouble?

Note that the same CSV file with full quotes on each data field, is read in without any errors by Word for Mac mail merge. If this bug isn't addressed, I'll need to give up on Nisus and go back to Microsoft Word. yuk.

Error:

Internal CSV parser error: unexpected delim (line 2 in file ...)

Could you please send us the CSV file, or at least the snippet that triggers the parsing error? You can do so using the menu Help > Send Feedback or by writing:

Thanks!

CSV file parsing bugs should be fixed in Pro 2.1.1 public beta 3.

As the original poster I can confirm that the problem of reading CSV files has been fixed in the 2.1.1 beta release. Thanks to Nisus for the fast response and bug elimination.

Thanks for confirming the problem is fixed rizzo. We've just officially released a final version of Nisus Writer Pro 2.1.1 that supersedes the beta.
