RDBMS error 3813: The positional assignment list has too many values - forum topic by 31_resu

Hello, I'm building a TPT script to load a flat file to a table. I'm running it from the command line:
tbuild -f c:\some_dir\tpt_load.txt
My Teradata platform system is: VERSION    14.00.07.15 RELEASE    14.00.07.16
Below is my code dummied up. I'm loading 109 columns of data. The below is as identical as the original, minus all the col names and their commas , etc. The error message suggests that I have a misplaced comma, or the error is in the insert somewhere. I have compared the columns of the target table, to Schma, the Apply, and the Insert, and they align count per count and by row/co, they have their commas, colons, paranthesis, all in the right places an accounted for. So I'm getting the impression that error is misleading and it's bad syntax somewhere other than a column alignment by commas as 3813 is suggesting. Any ideas on what I can try or provide to help resolve? Thank you.
