It's not a matter of whether "the delimited stuff" is in double quotes. The fields in the data don't need to be in double quotes unless they have embedded newlines or commas or double quote characters. The field separator ';' doesn't need to be in double quotes because it's a single literal character. The only thing that *needs* to be in double quotes is the "\n" beacues as bmann++ #good eye, correctly pointed out, otherwise it will expect there to tbe a literal slash followed by a literal 'n' and the end of all your records.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
