Encountered this for first time last week when file exported by script from ERP 
system was different than a manual export. Issues was UTF-8 vs UTF-16 I 
believe. I didn't have to deal with it though. Simply pointed out the issue to 
the database guy and he changed the export format. Solved my problem... Not 
yours.
