SQL import and export wizard - getting black boxes

Question

I am attempting to import a fixed width file into Sql using the import and export wizard. Below is a short bit of background about the data.

First field (state) is char (2)
Second field is char (2)
Third field is char (6) 

There are 22 of them but the issue starts at the beginning and carries through til the end. In the import wizard, I specify the input column width as 2 and the output column width as 2. It seems simple enough.

However, starting with row 2 I get two black boxes in place of the state value. It there pushes the state value into the second column and starts a domino effect.

Any thoughts on this?

Answer 1

The solution was that I inserted a column at the end titled blank and made it char (2) to account for the two black boxes. –
