awk: Transpose csv row to column.

Hello,
am I new to awk, and I am tryint to:

INPUT FILE:
Code:
"73423555","73423556","73423557","73423558","73423559"

OUTPUT FILE:
Code:
73423555
73423556
73423557
73423558
73423559

My useless code so far:
Code:
#!/bin/awk -F ','
BEGIN
{
i=0;
}
{
for (i=1, i<=NF, i++)
print $i
}
{
}

Any help much appreciated.

Thank you in advance.
