reading csv files

[hilz]

Hi...
What is the recommendation for reading CSV files?
Does anyone have any recommendation regarding a library that does the
job, instead of me parsing the file and accounting for all weird
situations (commas, quotes, and more)...
i know about this http://ostermiller.org/utils/CSV.html
but are there any other choices?

thanks

there are several choices. See http://mindprod.com/jgloss/csv.html

Of course I prefer the one I wrote myself. It's main weakness it is
currently does not handle embedded comments.
