Re^2: Complicated search and replace on a string

Thanks! I never even thought to look for a csv parser (facepalm).

That module does the trick and saves me a lot of work. It's clear now I was searching for the wrong thing.

In the Perl environment, you should always look for a CPAN module first. Q: “What is all the Perl-language fuss about?” A: “CPAN!” Modules – thousands of them – to do just about anything imaginable. All installed on your system, and self-tested on your system, in a matter of seconds. It is almost never the right thing to do, to “roll your own.” Leverage CPAN heavily.
