• Subject: Changing layout of .csv files

I have converted an AS/400 file to a .csv two different ways.
 
1.  CPYTOIMPF - I  specify no string delimiters and to use commas as field delimiters.  I use carraige return for the record delimeter.   The company I sent this to says it will not convert into their system,  that the data does not come in all on one line for each record,  although he says they allow for 132 characters, and each record is only 51 positions.
 
2.  Client Access Data Transfer -  The file from here has double quotes around each of the character fields but does not line wrap.  He cannot handle the double quotes either.
 
Is there a way to change either one of these to have a .csv file with no double quotes and one record per line?  I do not know what conversion he is putting it through,  he just says it converts a csv to a database for his unix file.
 
HELP!!!
