# ERR\_DATASET\_CSV\_UNTERMINATED\_QUOTE: Error in CSV file: Unterminated quote[¶](https://doc.dataiku.com/dss/latest/troubleshooting/errors/ERR_DATASET_CSV_UNTERMINATED_QUOTE.html#err-dataset-csv-unterminated-quote-error-in-csv-file-unterminated-quote "Permalink to this headline")

While parsing a CSV file, DSS encountered the start of a quoted field, but not the end. This prevents DSS from successfully parsing the CSV file.

While this can sometimes indicate a broken CSV file, in the vast majority of cases, this issue is caused by a wrong *CSV Quoting style*. For more details about CSV quoting styles, please see Delimiter-separated values (CSV / TSV).

Generally speaking, it means you have used “Excel” quoting style (the default) but your file is actually Unix or Escaping-only

## Remediation[¶](https://doc.dataiku.com/dss/latest/troubleshooting/errors/ERR_DATASET_CSV_UNTERMINATED_QUOTE.html#remediation "Permalink to this headline")

* Go to the dataset settings

* Go to the “Format/Preview” tab

* In the “Style” section, select “Unix”

* Save the settings and try again

* If you still encounter an issue, try again with “Escaping only”
