8. Select the appropriate CSV file column break indicator from
the CSV Delimiter drop-do wn which you want Qstart to use in
all CSV files. This selection should be appropriate for the
current Windows regional setting on the local computer. A
comma separated values (CSV) file is sometimes called a
character-separated values file because the field separators used
to organize the data into columns does not always have to be a
comma (co mmas indicate the columns are separated by
commas). For example, users with the re gional setting of
English (United States) will use the default of , (comma ).
However, users located in other regions of the world
(Germany, Spain, Portugal, Russia, etc.) will choose . (period),
or ; (semicolon) in order to conform to the CSV format of their
region.
9. Select the CSV decimal placeholder from the CSV Decimal
drop-down which you want Qstart to use in all CSV files. This

Qstart generated CSV files to indicate the ap p r o priate decimal
placeholder for numerical values. For example, users with the
English (United States) regional setting will use the default of .
(period) to indicate a period symbol should be used for
decimal placeholders ( 123.45 for e xample) in numbe r values
included in their Qstart generated CSV files. Qstart user s in
other regions of the world (G ermany, Spai n, Portugal, Rus s ia,
etc.) can choose , (comma) to use a comma (123,45 for
example) for decimal positions in the numbers included in their
CSV files.
