If you prepare each and every field with apostrophes at the beginning and
end and use a comma delimiter all fields should work correctly, even fields
with apostrophes and commas in them. 
 
At least, that works for me....  I think.

That's what I've been doing as well. I just wanted to make sure there
wasn't something I was missing.

I've always had to "prepare" the file ahead of time with an RPG program
that looks for quotes and apostrophes in various fields and replace them
with blanks. I recall some discussion in the archives regarding someone
dealing with a 15" pizza. You can guess that I missed lunch today...
