CSV messaging standard

The comma separated value (CSV) format is a typical format for describing data in tables or spreadsheets.

The CSV format is used to exchange data between database applications or spreadsheet applications. Although the CSV format is widely used, a definitive specification has not been formally documented. However, these are some of the rules that characterize the CSV format:

The following sample is a message set application that shows you how to model some typical CSV message variants, and how to transform the sample CSV messages to and from XML. The XML messages illustrate the logical structure of the data after it has been parsed. You can view samples only when you use the information center that is integrated with the Message Brokers Toolkit.

CSV messages can be modeled using the MRM Tagged/Delimited String Format (TDS).
