I'm going to be writing an app that parses and validates csv files
against certain validation rules. At this point this is all that I
know about the project so I'm trying to get libraries together that
may be of use. Using the Apache Validator with some type of parsing
engine sounds like a good start. Has ayone ever been faced with
something like this? If so, what tools did you use?

Roedy Green has some links at <http://mindprod.com/jgloss/csv.html>
including one to his own, almost open source, code.
