Hi,

I read on following site that DBD::CSV supports multi-character
separator. But I am not able to use it. my separator is |++|

Even after setting sep_char to |++|, it doesn't work.
Am I missing something?

The current released version of DBD::CSV does not support this. The
author says he's added support to the next version, but I don't see it
on CPAN yet.

Oops! Wrong on that one. The current released version DOES have that
support, using the csv_class or csv_csv parameters.

Now the problem becomes finding a CSV parser that will do that, and
matches the interface of Text::CSV_XS. I haven't found one yet...
