Why don't you first load the data into a table (no primary key), then use
SQL to find your dups?

once loaded:
 SELECT <primary_key_column>, count(1) from <table> group by 1 having
count(1) > 1;

At least then, you'll really know what you're in for.  You can either
script a DELETE or... whatever you want to do, once clean, you can add the
PK.

Scott,

  I'll do this. First I need to find why 2 rows (of 143260) are not in the
table after reading the source file. I have those 2 rows somewhat isolated
as one's in the third quarter of the file and one in the fourth quarter.

Thanks,

Rich
