  • Subject: editing a csv file
  • From: "Quazy" <quazy@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
  • Date: Mon, 6 Mar 2000 14:33:59 -0600

I have a csv file, that has quotes" around  character fields, and nothing around numeric fields. 
 
I need to look at all the character fields and make shure that they only have one set of quotes in it, or the program that uses it will blow up. 
 
example. 
 
This one is ok
10008,"DE LA BARRE, CRAIG","3120 OGORMAN","AZTEC","AZ","57105",,,,"DECRAIG"
 
 
This one is bad the "A"  has quotes but is inside of another field
10049,"GOHL, DONALD","1520 "A" RIVERDALE RD","DE SMET","MN","57105",,,1833770
 
 
Any suggestions on what would be the best way to approach this?
 
 
Thanks
