Hi Caryn, I am not sure if it is helpful. Just give a pointer to let you check against.
From your description, the error could be caused by incorrect character encoding in your file that is named as "contents". Make sure this "contents" file is **plain text**, with ANSI/ASCII contents and NOT saved in unicode or UTF-8 encoding. UTF-8 encoded text files have 3 extra bytes at the head and this could cause problem for the import program to process correctly. Best, Allen Lam.
