as Vern said you may be able to insert some code to handle the double quote.

OK. I am still a vehement opponent of rolling your own CSV parsing.

If you are going to introduce ACS, then you might as well introduce
Python. It already has a battle-tested CSV parser, and it's an SQL
host language. And it's on the IBM i, so you can write your Python
program and incorporate it into automated processes (such as job
schedule entries).
