Saving Spreadsheet to Unicode extra quotation marks

I tried converting a spreadsheet with a mix of Thai characters and
English to a unicode text files. I had work on an assumption that the
default delimiter was a tab (Chr(9)). However some columns had extra
quotation marks in them. Why did this happen? Is this normal?

Thanks for any insight.

Spreadsheet implies Excel, so I'd suggest posting this question to a
Microsoft Excel newsgroup. I'd also suggest being just a little more
specific in the details you provide.
