QVF Files

Description of .qvf file
A .qvf file is a plain text file that you can create/view/modify in a Windows notepad or any plain text editor. In this file, you specify comma-separated values, one line per search, up to 9 values in a line. Don't use spaces after commas. If any value contains a comma then quote the whole value with quotation marks ". You can freely use quotation marks in the middle of the values; however, if the quotation mark is the first or the last character in a value, you should quote the whole value once more. If you are not sure, it is always safe to quote any value.

Examples:

Value: Boston, MA
In the values file: "Boston, MA"
Comment: You should quote because of the comma in the value

Value: "Los Angeles"
In the values file: ""Los Angeles""
Comment: You should quote because the quotation marks are the first and the last characters in the value

Value: "Big Apple" New York
In the values file: ""Big Apple" New York"
Comment: You should quote because the quotation mark is the first character in the value.

Value: Johnny "Big Boy" Daniels
In the values file: Johnny "Big Boy" Daniels
Comment: You don't have to quote because the quotation mark is neither the first nor the last character in the value.
