I'm pretty sure the first column (contactid) of your table
is defined as a long column, right? I was at least able to
reproduce the error here with this assumption.
To load longs (as short they ever might be) it is necessary
to specify a long data file.
Your command should look like this

DATALOAD TABLE dba.contacts
 contactid 1
 surename  2
INFILE 'c:\maxdb\tests\contacts.csv' SEPARATOR ';'
LONGFILE contactid '<your_long_file_name>'

The corresponding content of contacts.csv then must be for
your data

"1-1";"Smith"
"2-2";"Robinson"
"3-3";"Cage"

The data in your longfile then must be
123


Well, actually the Loader should report a different error message
(from that reporting in your case)
saying that there is the longfile info missing. Obviously this got
lost 'in space' in the current version.
We'll correct that asap.

Sorry for any inconvenience. If more problems arise with the Loader let
me know.

Regards,
 Steffen
