OUTPUT Style, Comma Delimited vs CSV
Hello,
We have a database that only reads the "Comma delimited" output style from Reference manager 12 (Refman). We are trying to convert to Zotero, but the CSV format (that we assumed was equivalent to "comma delimited") is not readable by our database.
My question is: does anyone know the difference between the "comma delimited" and CSV formats? If so, is it possible to tweak the Zotero output style?

You could use Zotero to export to CSV, then open up the exported file in a spreadsheet editor like Excel and edit the column names/reorder the columns to match the format used by Refman 12.
What tool are you using that requires such a non-standard data format?
