Exercise 13: Creating an Invoice for a Customer (invoice.sty) using CSV Files (Solution)
This is a solution to the CSV part of Exercise 13. I've used the letter class file for my solution and used an empty \opening{} to ensure the recipient's address is displayed.You need the sample files people.csv, booklist.csv, country-codes.csv, ordergroups.csv and orders.csv.
