Did you by any chance (accidentally) sort the file? You could easily
scramble the association of an identifier name (key 2) with the
identifier value (key 0) or holder (key 1). Only the first record in a
series contains the name, so if that record got moved to the middle or
end of a section, the preceding records would be unlikely to display the
correct name.
