Answer Wiki:
It could be any number of things. The database or disk could be full. There is a value in the data being uploaded which doesn't fit into the table. What ever process you are using to import the data can't parse the file correctly for some reason. Without more information about the method being used to import the data, and the error message you received not much usefull information isgoing to be able to be provided.

I think you will need to specify how are you uploading those records, and what error message you are getting.
The SQL server version could be useful as well.

I would recommend using ‘Excel to database ‘ as the utility will validate the data before it is uploaded, and report any problems to you immediately.It could save you a great deal of time.You read about and download the utility here:http://leansoftware.net/en-us/products/exceltodatabase.aspx
