How to remove unwanted " from string...
I have this Input File with extra double quotes in the middle. Please suggest how to handle this condition.

Input File:
Code:
"123985","SAW CUT CONCRETE SLAB 20"THICK",,"98.57","","EACH","N"
"204312","ARMAFLEX-1 3/8 X 3"",,"2.48","","PER FOOT","N"
"205745","MISTING HEAD HOLLOW CONE "C" TYPE","",,"4.32","","EACH","Y"
"205621","DRILL BIT FOR "WOOD" AND GLASS","",,"9.26","","EACH","N"

The extra quote from 20" from line 1, 3" from line 2, "C" from line 3 and "WOOD" from line 4 will be removed.
Desired Output:
Code:
"123985","SAW CUT CONCRETE SLAB 20THICK",,"98.57","","EACH","N"
"204312","ARMAFLEX-1 3/8 X 3",,"2.48","","PER FOOT","N"
"205745","MISTING HEAD HOLLOW CONE C TYPE","",,"4.32","","EACH","Y"
"205621","DRILL BIT FOR WOOD AND GLASS","",,"9.26","","EACH","N"

Please advice.
Thanks in advance.
