Dialect differences
FoxBase is a database server and CSV is a file format, so the gap is wider than a dialect difference – the rows below are where values and structure stop lining up.

| identifiers | — | Double quotes; a literal quote is doubled ("" ) |
| row limit | (driver dependent) | — |
| dates | Date (D) | Conventional text: 2026-09-18 or 2026-09-18 14:30:00 |
| long text | Memo (M) | — |
| binary | — | Not supported |
| separator | — | Comma "," |
| encoding | — | No declaration - UTF-8 works only with a BOM |
