John, this is the actual code I ran in TurboGears which is a Python framework. I should have left away the import statements. Trust me, the problem isn't in there because the UnicodeWriter is functioning perfectly. I did allready sanitate the csv file to these four lines in Notepad so there isn't anything more than this:
id;company;department 12;Cadillac;Research 11;Ford;Accounting 10;Chrysler;Sales The only possible problematic lines are marked ##### here: > > def import_roles(self, input=None, *args, **kwargs): > > inp = 'C:/temp/test.csv' > > roles = [] > > msg = '' > > ## try: > > fp = open(inp, 'rb') ##### > > reader = csv.reader(fp, dialect='excel', delimiter=';') ##### > > ## reader = UnicodeReader(fp, dialect='excel', delimiter=';') ##### > > for r in reader: > > roles.append(r[0]) ##### > > fp.close() > > ## except: > > ## msg = "Something's wrong with the csv.reader" > > return dict(filepath=inp, > > roles=str(roles), > > msg=msg) Yeah rdmur, I'll have a look at the Python commandline. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
