Attached is a simple .TXT file consisting of "title","Author","Price"
3 columns exported as ASCII.
i.e. "Laboratory Techniques In Botany","Purvis, Marion Joy","£4.55"
You need to edit the file extension to CSV
ASCII encoding represents the £ sign as one byte A3.
UTF-8 encoding would put two bytes C2 A3
As it turns out I didn't notice that encoding options are available for the CLZ book collector export. In fact it offers None, UTF-8 and Unicode, the default being None. I never needed to consider encoding until now!
