Parsing tab-delimited text data

P

Pavils Jurjans

Hello,

Is there some class among the thousands of .Net classes, that would do the
tab-delimited text data parsing into, say, jagged array (an array of
arrays). I have some code sources in other languages, that I am ready to
recode, but there's no need to do that, if .Net has it built-in. Mind, that
the task is not as simple as it sounds, there are tricky parts like data
cells that contain the characters used for delimiting fields (i.e., tabs),
or records (i.e., CR+LF), those must be enclosed by text delimiters. Thus,
generic split+split is not a solution.

Thanks,

Pavils

Hmm, that's a very interesting approach. I'll test it.

Thaks!
