I am using MS2003 Excel and I have a text file that has several elements
separated by commas and quotes (, "")in each of 40,000 records.
SAMPLE:
"boxer"001,"A", "closet","5656895","door","wood",.....etc

What my problem is ( "boxer"001,) the quotes need to be outside the number
(001). I can work this out in Excel, but then I am unable to return it to a
text file as it was prior to my manipulation.

Manual manipulation of the text file (MS wordpad) is out of the question.

Any solutions?
