Update V1.1 18.05.2012: A standard CSV output even if ” and/or a field separator in the cell text,
see http://forum.phpwcms.org/viewtopic.php?p=135720#p135720.

It is advisable to rename the original file to example act_export_org.php before doing the hack. Store the modified file e.g. under the name act_export_patch.php.
This is useful when updating the system and the patched file act_export.php is overwritten.
After an update this hack can be used again quite simple.
