CSV copy not correct (if the comma is in the results)

Hi Fred,

Thanks for pointing this out. According to the Excel CSV specification,
any fields of data containing a comma have to be enclosed in quotes, and any
embedded quotes in there have to be 'escaped' with a quote.

I will submit the change to development, and hopefully a fix will be out
soon.

Thanks,
