The CSV output format writes output records as comma-separated values text.
The output of the CSV output format consists of multiple lines
of text, one line for each output record.
Each line contains the values of the output record fields,
separated by a comma (,) character. Depending on the value of the
oDQuotes parameter, field values
can be enclosed within double-quote characters (").
If enabled through the headers
parameter, the first line in the output is a "header" that contains
the names of the fields.
The following sample shows the output of the CSV output format when using the default values for its parameters:
