import. Check for ListLen() of your line and if it isn't 21 you have a
problem. Maybe you can ignore the import then and write an error
message.
As you use chr(13) as a dilimiter, I assume you are on windows. Try
using chr(13)chr(10) as list delimiter, it may solve your problem.
As a side note, <cfhttp> can read a csv file and convert it into a
query. It could make your life easy. There are also some custom tags
that do it if I remember correctly.
