The pipe character is used in DD remote reference formulae, like this
=STOCK|NYSE!WHITCO
don't know if this will cause you any problems, but
AFAIK thats the only
place its used.

I am going to be receiving csv files that contain the "pipe" characters ||
but are not to be used as delimiting characters.
I am not aware of any use of | in Excel and have tried to see if I can
create any problems or unexpected results by using it, and so far I have
not.
Does anyone know if this could create problems? My eventual plan is to
manipulate this file via macro or VB and then send parts of it out via
email
automatically.
Thanks!
