Default CSV and "

I have text which includes " <inch marks. When I saveas csv, and open with
notepad there are additional " added to the text. If I re-op in excell I do
not see the additional ". For instance, a cell with < 6" shows in csv
opened with notepad as < "6""" . same csv re-opened in excel still shows
original format < 6" .

Any way to NOT get additional quotes to show when opening in Notepad?
