in reply to txt to csv

What does your input data look like? Are there space characters embedded in the fields? Null fields? Fields with characters >= 0x7f?

See the "quote_space", "quote_null" and "quote_binary" attributes that can be passed along to the constructor, documented in Text::CSV's POD.

      Which part are you having trouble with: Adding parameters to the constructor call, or understanding the portion of the POD that explains what parameters to add? Who wrote the code you're currently using?

      The line you need to modify is line 7. You'll be adding parameters to your call to the constructor (the new() method).

        I have written the line 7 as

         my $csv = Text::CSV->new(({ binary => 1, eol => $/ }));

        still it puts " before and after every word
