Can you post a small sample CSV as well as the code you've got so far? In code tags would be nice.

You know, a typical Short, Self-Contained, Correct Example

I'm willing to play around with this (having done many similar things in the past). But, at a minimum, i need a real life sample of the data (a few lines), as well as a what the correct result should be. You can replace any data we're not supposed to see with some decent dummy values, but seeing the actual file format makes understanding your task a bit easier. "a b c d" is a bit too abstract for me.
