technically assistance with csv needed	Can't Post

I have a small program that reads in a csv file, truncates a line or 2 using split. Makes a calculation, and rearrange the output and place it into another csv file.

The problem lies in where the "" end up. Apparently the truncation screws up the placement of quotation Marks. How do I strip the "" from the file as i read it in? This will solve the issue.

not sure I understand your question, but:

$foo =~ s/"//g;

removes all double-quotes from string $foo.
