Helmut/Mortiz, Yes, I realized that the header needed to be removed and I could change the column names in the database. Removing the header made no difference. I changed the separator from ',' to '|', but what I think made the difference is that I noticed the data files were in DOS mode; \l\f rather than Unix mode, \n. I ran both files through dos2unix and the GUI imported them with no issues. I keep forgetting that in the US all government agencies use only Microsoft software and all text files need to have their line terminators changed.
