Can someone please explain this error to me. I'm trying to import a text file containing about 2,000,000 lines of data. The table gets created but the transferring of the data breaks at around 1,900,000. It gives the following error. "Error at Source for Row number. Too many columns found in the current row; non-whitespace characters were found after the last defined columns data.

Double check data file, maybe has invalid row terminator.
