Description
When you attempt to import the attached CSV file (test.csv), the following error message is displayed:
The file is not a CSV file or does not match the settings below (Unquoted fields do not allow new line <"\r\n"> in line 1.)
This error occurs when the CSV file contains values with newline characters ("\n") inside double-quoted fields, and the lines end with DOS-style line endings ("\r\n"). If the file uses UNIX-style line endings (\n), the error does not occur.
This type of CSV file can be generated by Microsoft Excel when cells contain line breaks.
