I use a OleDb data reader to read a number of records, and then write them to a CSV. I then read from this CSV using File.ReadAllLines, then split on commas to get my data. The problem is some parts of the CSV include a character I can’t display (shows up as a square), which appears to act as a line break – this line break corrupts the CSV, so I need to get rid of it.

I’ve tried replacing Environment.NewLine with something else (a blank space) when writing the CSV, and ditto with /r and /n but to no avail – the character isn’t replaced. What other ways are there to remove these?

    Stop rolling your own CSV parser.
