- Excel messes up leading 0s
- Octal nightmare
- Blame it on EBCDIC, space comes after 9 in ordinal order!

I get a CSV file from a customer, but they often edit it using Excel.
There go the leading zeroes, decimals, date formats...

Well, in my case it was an Admin Manager who passed out a 'file format' to 40 or so customers for a CSV return with (30+) columns described as 'Number', 'Text' and 'Date'....

I never, ever start a numerical sequence with leading zeros. Never. Add a 1 at the beginning.

To be clear, it's not my number.
It's some government issued number

I used to complain that solution in all my previous work were too big.
But now that I just joined EA Games, the solution I work on takes the cake by a big margin: 541 projects!
Can't wait for VS2022! In fact.. already using the preview.. save for a few minor bug, it ain't too bad...

Good luck, sounds like a lot of work!

Just making note, in the mind, of the names of these solutions, and what they do, is an effort in itself.
