With more than 250 posts in this forum, you should have some idea of how to do this by now. Please show us that after watching the discussions on various problems posted in these forums that you have learned something from us in a year and a half. We'll be happy to help if you're having problems getting a working solution, but you should be able to show us a good start at a solution to this problem.
Please also specify what type of system and what shell you're using (since date processing capabilities vary a lot from system to system).
However, I would STRONGLY suggest that you convert your input file to just use plain double quotes (") rather than using one opening double quote (“) and three closing double quotes (”) per line in your input file and expected output file formats. I have never seen a comma separated values file that uses unmatched opening and closing double quotes for different comma separated values.
