----------------------------------------

Hi Danoja,

I studied your patch for a while, and I ran the upgrade tests, and I think I am
reproducing the problem you are seeing.

I'm not 100% sure this is the issue, but I see that your SYSCS_IMPORT_TABLE_BULK
system procedure is expecting 8 arguments, but in Changes10_13.java you are only
passing 7 arguments on the call(s) to SYSCS_IMPORT_TABLE_BULK.

Can you try double-checking the argument list in the test program against the
argument list that is defined for the system procedure?

> The SYSCS_IMPORT_TABLE (and SYSCS_IMPORT_DATA) function allow import of data 
> from external resources. In general, they can process CSV files that created 
> with various tools - with one exception: the header line.
> While there is no accepted standard, most tools will include a header line in 
> the CSV file with column names. This convention is supported in Excel and 
> many other tools.
> My Request: extend the SYSCS_IMPORT_TABLe and SYSCS_IMPORT_DATA (and other 
> related procedures) to include an extra indicator for the number of header 
> lines to be ignored.
> As an extra bonus it will be help is the SYSCS_IMPORT_DATA will accept column 
> names (instead of column indexes) in the 'COLUMNINDEXES' arguments. E.g., it 
> should be possible to indicate COLUMNINDEXES of '1,3,sales,5,'. This feature 
> will make it significantly easier to handle cases where the external input 
> files is extended to include additional columns.
