Re: Issue with Loop when Apostrophe in Fieldby pryrt (Abbot) |

The documentation on Text::ParseWords is pretty sparse, but looking at the tests, it appears to me that it treats pairs of single-quotes (apostrophes) like an alternative to pairs of double-quotes (quotes). Since there is only one apostrophe, my guess is that it is not seeing the end-single-quote, and so not returning any list because of invalid data (in its opinion. Oh, apparently I do have Text::ParseWords, so I tried it:
Yep, quotewords recognizes apostrophes/single-quotes as quotes, so you cannot have unpaired apostrophes. addendum: any reason you aren't using Text::CSV_XS for dealing with CSV? /addendum
