Column spin file doesn't follow normal CSV formatting
Hi @Sven,
Just a quick one - I was using %column-spinfile% with a standard csv file as saved by excel. One of the text fields had commas in it, and as usual was wrapped in "quotes". Most CSV parsers will ignore the commas within the quotes as it is a text field, but GSA sees the following:
col1: "Word
col2: and another
col3: word"
instead of
col1: "Word, and another, word"
It would be handy if we could use text colums in csvs without worrying too much about formatting. Thanks!

Anchor_Text
rankings2.csv-3
-> Anchor text taken from domain anchor
ie: if you are using domain anchor it looks like it is truncating the url before it is loaded from the macro rather than after, so you sometimes get a fragment of the macro rather than of the domain name. Using %url% in another anchor field works as expected, so that's what I'm using fo rnow.
