Thanks James for the reply.

I need to add default values (0) to 2 columns that are not in the csv.

For example,

        Column 1,  Column 2,  New Column 1,  New Column 2
        ---------  ---------  -------------  ------------
Row 1   csv value  csv value   0              0


When I go to create a row, I want to check for these column headers and 
write to the table with a zero.

I'm not sure if it's easier to write to the csv first, adding the 
columns, then parsing to the database or just do it all at once.

John
