From: Mark Toth Date: 2007-12-29T00:12:24+09:00 Subject: FasterCSV and " char question Hello, I have a text that containing " char and want to delete it from the text before I read it to the database with fasterCSV. This is "the Text". ===> This is the Text. What is the command to simple replace the " char with nothing? This is the code so you can see what I am trying to do: file = 'c:\filename.txt' $KCODE = "utf8" FasterCSV.foreach(file.tr('"', ''), :headers =>true, :col_sep =>"\t", :row_sep =>"\n") do |row| @PriceListFileRow = row next if row.empty? a_product = Product.new( :sku => row[0] , :name => row[1] , :price => row[2] , :salestart => row[3] , :saleend => row[4] , :category => row[5] , :manufacturer => row[6] , :manufacturersku => row[7] , :othersku => row[8] , :producturl => row[9] , :stockstatus => row[10] , :shipping => row[11]) a_product.save - The problem is that fasterCSV read the file before it卒s been converted with the " char. - The second problem that I have with Rails is that 奪辰旦 letters doesn卒t been imported correctly even when I use the $KCODE = "utf8" code. Thank you again and waiting for your answer! Best regards, Mark -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
