**Bug introduced in 8 or earlier and fixed in 11.2.0** ---------- Here is a valid CSV: a1,b1,c1,d1,"e1 e1 e1" a2,b2,"c2 c2 c2",d2,e2 It has two rows and five columns, and contains two fields with embedded CRLF. (See the [CSV standard][1]). But *Mathematica* doesn't parse it as such. Import["test.csv", "CSV"] Result: {{"a1,b1,c1,d1,\"e1"}, {"e1"}, {"e1\""}, {"a2,b2,\"c2"}, {"c2"}, {"c2\"", "d2", "e2"}} The result is the same if I use Import["test.csv","CSV","TextDelimiters"->"\""] How can I get *Mathematica* to parse the CSV correctly?
