Jason,

If the columns are "empty data values" in the file. Then do not map
them in the import tool. (It might help.) However, apparently, some
rows have data, or null data, defined for them.

I have seen such behaviour when the csv file is edited with Excel.

Another possible point of confusion is how "hard returns" are dealt
with in csv format. Some editors write them as hard returns and thus
break up the single line format of csv.


Keep in mind that filters that fire on merge can look at data supplied
to display only fields too. (A good, old school, way to do some
signaling for data merge work IMHO.)


Then again... this could be as "simple" as a bad client install, or a bug too.
