Thanks for the reply Mark (and Emmanuel and Yvan).
I would not advise writing your own CSV parser
The need for one just keeps coming up, and now it's unavoidable.

Someone already mentioned the Perl module for CSV, but there's also a Python one.

 <http://docs.python.org/lib/module-csv.html>

I would avoid doing it (in any language, actually. I know the pain - I took one already written in C, and still spent a lot of time fixing it up to actually work, and proving that it actually worked. And writing an CSV Writer part for the reader part I already had. No Fun.)

Because, sometimes "Comma Separated.." really means "Semi-colon separated"

Enjoy,
_Ryan Wilcox
