Absolutely! Let's see what the OP has to say about it.
Anything that won't sell, I don't want to invent. Its sale is proof of utility, and utility is success.

Did what u said , Most of the data had "" around them , but they were few fields where the "" were missing..... Hmmm..... thats when I figured out that one of the data I am using has 4 fields more than the other !!

The original source data was messed up , I have changed it and now it works well.

Remember, it takes only one misplaced/missing quote to trigger it all.
Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes. Art is knowing which ones to keep.
