This is a framework bug.

I've added a partial test for this to the Data package, where the issue seems to be. I can now reproduce that one of the files contains one record, while the other shows as having zero rows. I haven't gotten farther than that, though.

Did you try both .csv files I attached? The first one should create an error. By removing the line break, it should work. I don't know why the second one works. But there has to be something with the parser. Can anyone confirm this behavior?

Now I'm confused - do you mean that this ticket can be closed?

Maybe the same problem like in ~~bug 3839~~? I'm a bit confused. Inspired by your comment I created a new test which includes a "working" record and a "should-not-work" record. But everything worked. Even the record which was ment to break everything - it's the same as in the last example I uploaded - works now. So this seems to be a more complex problem and maybe it is linked to ~~#3389~~.

Outlook 2003 (tested with german edition) exports an empty description field as a single newline in quotes, which kronolith does not like. Import works when the newline was removed manually. Attached is an example .csv with one record that produces the error.
