Emacs: import a CSV into org-mode

Emacs has a very nice extension by the name of org-mode. I would like to be able to easily load CSV files into org-mode without significant grief. All I've been able to find is table-import or table-capture, which, simply put, don't work even approximately well. Note that part of my issue is text strings with a comma within them. 1,2,...

Emacs C-h c doesn't seem to work for chords 3 combinations long?

Hi, I'm trying to use C-h c in emacs to figure out what a key combination is bound to. The combination is C-u C-c C-q, which realigns tags in org-mode.

Can I convert a Tex file into an equivalent Org file? If so, how?

I'm in the process of writing a whitepaper, and am about half-way through. I've just realized that it would be far simpler to write this in org-mode and export to latex/pdf than writing it directly in latex-mode.
