CSV Issues with quotes after a number

getting rid of the quotes in all of my descriptions is not an option. 
That would mess everything up.

The info I need to export is item numbers, descriptions, prices, etc. I'm having issues with the description field because some records contain a quote after something like a length like 24".  In those instances, it sucks the next field into the description field cell with a comma placed between them. This only happens if its a number followed by a quote, letters with quotes after them work out just fine. I even tried changing the edit type on the description fields to see if that made a difference but it didn't. I also was just thinking that I could move the description field to the fart right and there wouldn't be anything to suck over but after doing that, it actually sucked up the next line under it.
