Do you want to continue in that topic?

Your csv file is not csv.

Line 1 lacks a comma and a second item

Check out lines 63, 65, 75, 80,87

You also violate your own rule of 8 bits per character.

I recommend hand editting the csv file in a good text editor, (I like free Notepad++), and

  • use metacharacters like \r, \n, \t for special cases.
  • pad on the left with 0's to fill out 8 bits where needed
  • don't rely on native CSV conversion blocks to handle all that, unless you are really good with quotes.

I would switch from csv blocks to a split at \n approach.
That gives you a list of lines.
Split each line at comma to get the bits and the character.

The numbers should be 8, i forgot changing the number format into text format. Anyway, my biggest issue is the lines you mentioned, i'm going to use your advise to make them work. Thank you so much as always. Best regards :slight_smile:
