<div><span><font color="#0000ff" face="Arial">Sometimes I have had problems like this due to line termination
characters. It's possible if a file gets moved from Linux to Windows and
back again, it can get unexpected CR or LF characters. Sometimes these are
read as a garbage line. I would take a look at your text file with a hex
editor to make sure the line terminations are what you expect.
Unfortunately as the file you attached got sent via email I can't tell from
looking at it what was in your original file.</font></span></div>
