Thanks for the help guys.  After doing search and replaces for most of 
the day yesterday, i thought i had a decent file to play with.
go to import it-
And now, i am missing a field (most likely a ,"", field).  Of course, in 
24,000 records, and tons of 2nd address lines filled in this way, looks 
like its time to go back to the client and have them send me another 
dump, and start all over :(
