You'll want to use the real CSV parser then, the code in psql would look
like this:
\copy gisp FROM 'd:/projects/gisp/gisp.csv' WITH CSV
PG and MS Excel have an almost identical definition of what a CSV file
should look like, opening the file in Excel is always a good quick check
as to why PG isn't liking the file.
