    Hello,

    A properly formatted CSV can contain commas in its field values and can be used to import data.

    Thanks.

    Hi Manpreet,

    To do this, you have to surround each of your data columns with quotes.  So if I wanted to insert an Account with the Name of "Comma, Name" I would use:

    "Name", "Industry"
    "Account, Name", "Electronics"
