Pascal:  It should not have a problem with parentheses, any valid CSV should work. Is the file Ending ".csv"? Can you send me the output of the following Terminal command?
qlmanage -d1 -t file.csv

Ted Fischer:  This is a fantastic plugin! Unfortunately, it doesn't work with csv data generated from FileMaker Pro. I wonder if it's because FMP encloses the data in parentheses. Is there any way to fix that?
