I appreciate all the help, it is late for me over here so I need to go off-line.

Thanks again all, until tomorrow.

I'm gonna take a stab and say that it looks like maybe a line ending problem.

Did you make the csv file in linux or windows?

Dark_Helmet,

I just ran:

Code:

$ dos2unix aContactList.csv

It works now, I forgot that the original contact file was from winblowz.

Thanks for the help!
