Importing large comma deliminted (.csv) file into Statistics 19 and it loses several data fields when using the read text data import wizard possibly due to missing values in those fields

Troubleshooting


Problem

I am trying to import a large comma delimited file (.csv) into IBM SPSS Statistics 19 and it loses several data fields when using the read text data import wizard. Some of the data fields contain missing values for all cases. When I do the text data import in SPSS 16 all of the variables are imported. Why am I losing variables when importing in version 19 import?
