coma to newline to make a csv file into one colum?

I think OOO base by open office can open a larger csv file than other spread sheets.

Otherwise how would I remove blank lines?

How would I remove repeted records?

I know sql has select the ones that are not empty
then their is also return uneque.

Maybe you could state clearly what your problem is.

I can't make any sense of your lines ...
And the number of answers so far might be due to other people also not understandig what you want ...

csv coma seperated value replace column with LF

A comma seperated text file can be output from very simple sensors etc.

if the commas were able to be replaced by carage return line feed

their would be one column and many more rows with 1 record.

That is what I would like to do.
