importing data from .csv file
I have a perl program that generates a csv file, & can import it to OO calc, but I'm not happy with the formatting options.
I tried to access it via writer, but writer seems to only access fields from the dbase package, and I can't find how to import data to the dbase either from csv or from calc. and just to make things interesting, the csv file uses special characters like " and ' (it's the result of font-mapping) so I have to use custom delimiters.
so:
1 how do I access spreadsheet (CALC) data in OO writer?
2 how do I import data from other sources (csv files in particular) to OO base?
3 how do I define custom delimiters?
