Hello Everyone,
Sorry for my english because iam french...
In my daily life, I use files from Power BI blobs. That is to say google sheet files imported via a module that transforms google sheet files into CSV.
Except, the delimiters are commas, and some cells contain commas. So this generates information lags. How to do ?
I found a solution that allows to get all columns between double quotes :
I see a solution for which I cannot find the formula:
1. Delete the commas contained between the double quotes
2.Split columns via commas
3.Remove double quotes
But how to do this?
If you have other solutions, I'm listening!
I really need your help...please 🙂
Hi @Anonymous ,
Any updates?
Best Regards,
Eyelyn Qin
Hi @Anonymous ,
Did you try to select all columns and replace " with nothing after split columns:

It works but I just saw that I have double quotes in the cells as well. Is there a formula that allows to remove double quotes inside 2 double quotes?
Can you paste one such original string (not splitted) ? Don't paste the picture.
of course :
Here is a copy of the line when I paste it into a notepad :

Thank you for helping 🙂
If you select delimiter comma and " as Quote character, you should get right result.
