Just to be more specific about this: I have a very strong suspicion that whatever is generating the input that you're trying to read is doing something ad-hoc with regards to CSV file format. Knowing what generated the file, whether it be Excel, or some custom script, is very helpful in diagnosing where the problem's originating from. Your suspicion about the quotes around entire rows: > Does it have to do with the "" marks present before each line in the data? sounds reasonable. I expect quotes around individual fields, but not around entire rows. Such a feature sounds anomalous because it doesn't fit the description of known CSV formats: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comma-separated_values
