I use Perl version 5.22.1 and I work on Windows.
I tried to parse a csv file with Text::CSV, it does not parse UTF-8 characters as umlaut in German (ü or ä). I had to open the file with encoding 'ISO-8859-1' and it worked.
open my $fhc,'<:encoding(ISO-8859-1)', $path.$input_content or die "Can't open the INPUT file\n".$input_content."\n: $!";
If I do not specify the encoding I have errors indicating the umlaut characters are not recognized and cannot be parsed. On the other hand, Text::CSV gave errors in Linux environement when inputing a file with quotation marks around the CSV fields. It seems a little odd to me that an input file encoded in UTF-8 could not be parsed correctly.
Hallo,

I am about to try Parse::CSV, and using the following documentation : http://search.cpan.org/~kwilliams/Parse-CSV-2.04/lib/Parse/CSV.pm
It is not very clear how to extract a field, in fetch for example.
Thank you,
Catalina
