| | I work with delimited files in which lines/records can (and do) have different numbers of delimiters/columns. That is, the file includes different kinds of records in the same file. Some records will have, say, 30 columns, others will have 50, others may even have over 100. (The value of the first column indicates what kind of record it is.) My problem is that when I edit such a file in Killink CSV and save the file, K.CSV appends delimiters to the end of each line so that all lines have the same number of delimiters. Unfortunately the software I must use to validate these files (which I have no control over) does not ignore extra delimiters at the end of each line. Instead, each line is required to have the correct/expected number of delimiters. In short, K.CSV breaks my files! Would it be possible to add an option for disabling this behavior? |

| I'll add the suggested option to the list of requested features. I can't guarantee the option will be added at this time since the behavior you described is by design, but I will do my best to add the option in a future release.
Thank you for the suggestion.
