Bug about vba-csv

[sdkn104]

Thank you for reporting.
I tired your CSV text but ParseCSVToArray does not return null.
I have tried both case of return code CR and CRLF.
My test code is:

    Dim csv As Variant
    Dim csvText As String
    csvText = readFile("C:\Users\xxxx\desktop\test.txt")  'readFile is defined in CSVUtils_Example.
    csv = ParseCSVToArray(csvText)
    If IsNull(csv) Then
        Debug.Print Err.Number & " (" & Err.Source & ") " & Err.Description
    End If

"test.txt" contains your CSV text.
What is your situation ?

The CSV text is on a ANSI codified file, when I tried to parse it, using your well documented code, I got an null value returned.

[ws-garcia]

First, I defined SDKNstrArray As Variant ; and then I make a call SDKNstrArray = ParseCSVToArray(tmpCSV), were the argument was defined as tmpCSV As String. The inspection window show me the null value returned after call the function.

[ws-garcia]

After a look to your response:

SDKNstrArray = ParseCSVToArray(tmpCSV) 
If IsNull(SDKNstrArray) Then 
    Debug.Print Err.Number & " (" & Err.Source & ") " & Err.description 
End If

The above prints the text 10001 (ParseCSVToCollection) Syntax Error in CSV: numbers of fields are different among records in the immediate window.

I tried the following code.

    Dim csv As Variant
    Dim csvText As String
    csvText = """Field with" & vbCr & _
                "multiple lines"" , ""Another field" & vbCr & _
                "With some" & vbCr & _
                "line breaks inside"" , ""Include some  comma, for test"" , Normal field here" & vbCr & _
                "1, 2, 3 ,4" & vbCr & _
                """Field 1"", ""Field 2"" , Field 3 , ""Field 4"""
    Debug.Print csvText
    csv = ParseCSVToArray(csvText)
    If IsNull(csv) Then
        Debug.Print Err.Number & " (" & Err.Source & ") " & Err.Description
    End If
    Debug.Print UBound(csv, 1)
    Debug.Print UBound(csv, 2)

The result in immediate window is

"Field with
multiple lines" , "Another field
With some
line breaks inside" , "Include some  comma, for test" , Normal field here
1, 2, 3 ,4
"Field 1", "Field 2" , Field 3 , "Field 4"
 3 
 4 

Please check it.

[ws-garcia]

The file has some space chars not included in your above test:
"Field with
multiple lines" ,"Another field
with some
line breaks inside" , "Include some comma, for test" , Normal field here
1, 2, 3 ,4
"Field 1", "Field 2" , Field 3 , "Field 4"

But, I think the main problem here is that the file actually use vbCrLf instead vbCr char

However, I will check if there are additional vbCrLf chars in the CSV file that potential may cause the cited error in your code.

[ws-garcia]

Definitely, the are an extra vbCrLf char into the CSV file. This file issue break the logic and generate an error. After remove it, your code successful import the data. Thanks for your replies!
