Hi.  I need to read in ASCII files of the for:

#.##,"string with , commas and spaces ", etc....

so the delimiter is a comma, the string is bound by quotes and contains both 
commas and spaces (but no other quotes).  So I've played around endlessly with
this but have not found the answer.  I could write a special function but it 
would be more eloquent with a standard IO call to sscanf()....

Thanks for any help, Dave Duling@niehs.nih.gov
