Default import text-file - strings contain cr-lf

I have a text-file I wish to import into an Excel spreadsheet.

This file's data-fields are comma-separated. Data-fields which contain text
are quote-delimited .... but the text-data-fields can contain CR-LF.

Excel's Data Get External Data Import Text File menu option will see
each such CR-LF as starting a new row -- which I don't want.

Has anyone worked-up a solution for this kind of import problem ?
