[Denver-pm] Splitting Data

[Olson, David]

Dear Robert,

My first guess would be that $String isn't really what you expect.  Try escaping the double quotes as in
$String = 'component1,component2,\"This is my, test string\", component4';

$String='component1,component2,"This is my, test string", component4';

($C1, $C2, $Str, $C4) = split(',', $String);

I'm only getting "This is my" in $Str and $C4 does not contain "component4".  Is there a graceful way of handling this?  It's a 1 in 10000 chance it'll break but accuracy counts.
