Saving CSV file to read from php

Hi,

Let me explain what I am trying to do first. I want to upload a .csv
file from a form page to the redhat server.
Uploading is working fine, I could upload the .csv file to the server.
But when I open the uploaded file using VI editor in the server, I see
"^M" characters and all CSV formats are disappeared. Also "fgetcsv()"
function cannot tell the length of the columns because of the messed
CSV forrmats.

When I saved the .csv file as Windows format in MS Excel, oh I am
using MacBook, it keeps CSV format at the server, but php cannot
access the file.

Anyone have solution this problem?

Big thanks for your help.
Bless,

The ^M is afaik a representation or \r, so take care of proper line
endings (or strip \r). If your format also has 'disappeared', I can't tell
you anymore about it without any output, so show us what else is wrong. An
URL of some sample data could be more appriopriate as it may be a
character set issue.

For a c# program to automatically extract information from email attachments using the Outlook 9 OM, rather than saving to a file, then reading the file, I would prefer to 'Save' the attachment to a string variable. The OM says that .SaveAsFile returns void. The input parameter is a string. Is there any way I could somehow 'fool' this method to 'save the file to string' variable so I don't have to then, open the file and read it back...

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
