sed or an awk script should help

num desc ind code

11 hi,feather y food
121 edible,oil y food
100 meal-pack y food
010 health,prod
120 lunch,pack


The above one is a flat file with the first line as column name.This is a comma delimited file with quote character as double quotes.

ie desc column has fields like "Hi,Feather" or may be "Hi,Fea"ther"

in short the record might look like

"10","Hi,Feather","y","Food"

this should go into the file but as in the example file above.Since delimiter is comma here ,I wud like to know if anyone can give me a script which can parse this the way i showed above and put into the file.ie Hi,Feather shud be in one column.Note: Its a vARIABLE LENGTH RECORD.
