If your grep has the -h option (but that is not standard grep), your solution could be reduced somewhat further still, to something like this:
Code:
grep -Fhve '"Date","Inbound","Outbound"' -e '","",""' *.csv | sort -u

If there are too many .csv files you may run into line length limitations. Then this is something you could try:
Code:
find . -name "*.csv" -exec grep -Fhve '"Date","Inbound","Outbound"' -e '","",""' {} + | sort -u

--
Without the -h option you would need cat:
Code:
cat *.csv | grep -Fve '"Date","Inbound","Outbound"' -e '","",""' | sort -u

or
Code:
find . -name "*.csv" -exec cat {} + | grep -Fve '"Date","Inbound","Outbound"' -e '","",""' | sort -u
