IIRC, MySQL supports CSV tables directly. That is, you can actually operate the database system using CSV table(s). Which presumably means you can even mix them with more traditional MySQL table types like MyISAM and InnoDB. 

I have no idea what MySQL's parsing rules are for CSV, but I imagine they're documented. Probably not the greatest for performance, I'd suspect.

Wow, lots of animosity toward CSV on here.


right, I hate CSV !


I must agree, however, that parsing CSV is much tricker than it seems,

and that AppleScript is probably not the best tool for the job.  If

you have Office, then scripting Excel is probably the best solution

from an AS point of view.  If not... is AppleWorks/iWork scriptable?


AppleWorks 6 is scriptable but it ignores CSV


iWork's applications knew CSV (in a foolish way but they knew it) alas,


in Pages and in Keynote, the portion of code related to number  

crunching is not scriptable

Numbers is not scriptable at all.
