Hard to say. Maybe you've done something to corrupt the file. Make sure you 
have a newline after the last line of data in the CSV file.

Try it (in a safe environment) and see what happens. It might work OK if the

missing fields would end up empty (though probably won't work if either has 
a notnull constraint).
