CSV formats are fairly simple to create. I can tell you a story here, but it should be the same as I already have written here: http://balusc.xs4all.nl/srv/dev-jep-csv.html It also contains some code snippets how to parse and format a CSV file.

What exactly do you mean with "Windows" ? I know that it is an operating system, but I really don't see a relation with the article.It's just a piece of IBM JSF component to upload a file. If you actually want to upload files, look for the Tomahawk t:inputFileUpload component.

so for parsing it I have to use the <hx:> commands then for uploading it, I would use the Tomahawk ones..?Does the script collector get the whole page or just what we want in to get..?

No, this is for an IBM JSF component to upload a file, not to parse a CSV file. You can do the upload on your own way anyhow. Parsing is just done by plain Java code. Do you find it hard to interpret and understand the code, it's comments and the article's text?

not really just a little bit.. This is the first time I'm attempting to create as CSV file..

where can I get the JARs for the com.ibm.faces.component.html.HtmlFileupload;

com.ibm.faces.fileupload.util.ContentElement;

ah.. ok.. so I can use the Tomahawk file upload for that..
