lower case characters can be used. If your narrative text contains any commas,
and you are editing in plaintext, enclose the entire narrative text section in
“
quotes.
”
Otherwise, the comma will be respected as the field delineator, and
everything after the first comma will not be imported (this procedure is not
necessary when using a spreadsheet program, such as Excel).
