Well, the error message complains about a W being used as a list separator. Looking at your text file, I see that the first two characters are ",W":

  

,Width##LENGTH##INCHES,Voltage##OTHER##,URL##OTHER##,Type ...

  

Maybe the leading comma is the problem?

  

I suggest that you take a careful look at how this text file needs to be structured and follow those rules precisely.
