EscapeModeRemarks
When the
EscapeMode is set to
Doubled, occurances of the
TextQualifier will be expected
to be escaped by replacing it with two consecutive occurances
of the
TextQualifier. This is the
format generally used for CSV in applications such as Excel.
When the
EscapeMode is set to
Backslash, occurances of the
TextQualifier will be expected
to be escaped by preceding it with a backslash character. This
format is common in Unix type environments.
When the
EscapeMode is set to
Backslash, the following escape
sequences are also recognized and replaced inside field values.
