Passages

If passages is downloaded from STRO using the query interface a CSV-file called passages_Year_=_YYYY.csv (e.g. YYYY=1754) will be crated. The file consist of the selected passsages, first line includes field names, each field is seperated with comma and values are qouted using dobble-qoute ". Exported data is encoded in "Latin1". By mailing the STRO-group it is also possible to get larger chucks of data, however it is encoded in UTF-8, lacks field names and each field are seperated by semi-colon. Therefore two import routines have been made, one for each of the supplied data format.
