You're best off not creating your own CSV parser, rather use a premade one such as this:

https://code.google.com/p/csharp-csv-reader/

Any reason why you wouldn't want to do this? If there's a valid one I can produce some regex, but it's not recommended as the format of the input data may change slightly and the match wouldn't happen.
