You don't say where you are having problems so it is difficult to advise.
A simple example is below ... it would need to be beefed up to accommodate
escaping of characters following CSV conventions, but it should give you
the flavour of what you need. You don't give an example of your data
either, so I have no idea how applicable the structure is to your work.
I hope this helps.
