Is there a way to use multi-character delimiters in Open Office Calc CSV file format?

Is there a way to save a CSV file with multi-character delimiters? When I enter more than one character, it just uses the first character.

Nope, CSV ("Comma-Separated-Values", or "Character-Separated-Values") files by nature use a single character as a separator.

Usually a Comma, but not exclusively.

Thanks. I was trying to find a way to unambiguously delimit a file with varying data. – JVE999 – 2014-03-10T16:38:40.270
