Hi,

Have you tried setting Quoting to none instead of msq?

Your load script will end something like ...

     (txt, codepage is 1252, embedded labels, delimiter is ';', no quotes);

instead of ...

     (txt, codepage is 1252, embedded labels, delimiter is ';', msq);

Hi,

if no error occurs in QlikView I presume there are binary data in a record or an empty row in the file.

Can you post your load command and some sample records..

Hi Ralf, I have understood the issue. In the file there are some rows with

the " character. I attach an example.

It's a bug o QlikView ?

How I can do to skip this problem ?

Thanks Rainer

Hi,

Have you tried setting Quoting to none instead of msq?

Your load script will end something like ...

     (txt, codepage is 1252, embedded labels, delimiter is ';', no quotes);

instead of ...

     (txt, codepage is 1252, embedded labels, delimiter is ';', msq);

Hi flipside

The right command was

(txt, codepage is 1252, embedded labels, delimiter is ';', no quotes, no

eof);

Thanks you very much for your help.
