Does anyone know of a good conversion tool to convert transportation related EDI formatted files to CSV format?

 I'm talking about what they call 210's and 310 and 315's.  I'm looking to receive these from transportation carriers (like ocean container forwarders), convert them to CSV format and then coax them ...

Thank you for the information, that would be my first step, although I believe the original question would be helpful for me to bring EDI responses back to quickbase as well.

    The process of parsing an EFI file can also be done with script. In the past all a browser could do with a text file is send it to the server. Nowadays it is easy to select a file from the users local computer, read the the file and parse it and send the parsed information to the server (QuickBase). 

    But again you have to pay attention to every piece of data involved in the process in terms of both input and output.
