That's easier then what I did.  Using
http://code.google.com/p/parsecsv-for-php/

Example code:
function opcerts_import_person() {
  //add person
  $csv = new parseCSV;
  $csv->auto('/var/www/import.csv');

  foreach ($csv->data as $key => $row) {
    //get the nid if the person already exists
    $nid = opcerts_person_check_emp_id($row['emp_id']);
    if (!$nid) {
      $person = new stdClass;

      //add person
      $person->uid = 1;
      $person->type = 'person';
      $person->field_last_name[0]['value'] = $row['l_name'];
      $person->field_first_name[0]['value'] = $row['f_name'];
      $person->field_emp_id[0]['value'] = $row['emp_id'];
      $person->field_position[0]['value'] = $row['title_tid'];
      $person->field_unit[0]['value'] = $row['unit_tid'];
      $person->field_middle[0]['value'] = $row['m_name'];
      $person->field_other_name[0]['value'] = $row['o_name'];
    }
    else {
      //add the unit to the person
      $person = node_load($nid);
      array_unshift($person->field_unit, array('value' =>
$row['unit_tid']));
    }
    node_object_prepare($person);
    node_save($person);
    unset($person);
  }
}

Cheers,
Neil
