one long-winded way with awk:
Code:
echo 'a,b,"cc,dd,ee",f,ii,"jj,kk",mmm' | \
awk -v sep='"' '{
for(i=1;i<=length($0); i++)
{
ch=substr($0,i,1)
if(ch==sep) {inside=!inside}
if (inside && ch==",") {continue}
printf("%s",ch)
}
printf("\n")
}'

Another one:
Code:
awk 'BEGIN{FS="\"";OFS=""}{gsub(",","",$2);gsub(",","",$4)}1' file

Quote:
Code:
BEGIN{
FS="\""
OFS="\""
}
{for(i=1;i<=NF;i++)
if(i%2 == 0)
gsub(/,/, "", $i)
print
}
