Answers.Body: <p>It's quite late now for the original poster but for those who are trying to solve this problem - it is likely that you simply need to enlarge the Excel row to show the full error.

Body: <p>When I imported contacts using a CSV some rows were not imported even though their formatting was fine and matched all the other rows. When I downloaded the errors, the error was called "record". Anyone know what that means? 
  I've now tried repeatedly re-entering the same six rows that were considered "record" errors and even though the data seems fine CiviCRM still won't import the contacts. Let me know what I'm doing wrong! </p>
  
  <p>Thanks,</p>
