IMHO, finding an optimal [im|ex]port reasoning among 60+ types should not be that much of a big deal. In fact as a data analyst I have exported and imported CSV data a whole lot and in many occasions it required some extra custom coding. I may as well consolidate my code as a whole jcsvport library in java and start an OS project when I find the time to so ~ lbrtchx
