Hi,

I'm still working with my existing 1.8.6 interpreter and getting errors 
after installing the gem FasterCSV.  Here's the code...

---------------------------

require "rubygems"
require "fastercsv"

csvData = FasterCSV.read("./dataInput3.csv")
myString = csvData[0][0]
puts myString

---------------------------

When I run it, I get the following errors...

./fastercsv.rb:53: uninitialized constant FasterCSV (NameError)
  from 
/System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/1.8/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:27:in 
`gem_original_require'
  from 
/System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/1.8/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:27:in 
`require'
  from fasterCSV.rb:50
frank-guerinos-macbook-air:CSV guerino1$


I checked the documentation using "ri FasterCSV" but there doesn't seem 
to be anything obvious.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Frank
