Can't seem to import tick data into 2000i

I created an ascii file of tick data using TickData's TickWrite program.
Below is a sample

"date" "time" "close"
20001201 083016 1328.80
20001201 083016 1328.50
20001201 083023 1328.00
20001201 083052 1327.60
20001201 083111 1327.50
20001201 083111 1328.00
20001201 083111 1328.50
20001201 083113 1328.00
20001201 083118 1328.50

When I try to create any kind of tick chart from this file (which only
contains 1 day of data) by importing the data in the "Create Chart Window"
popup, only a small fraction of the data for that day actually gets loaded.
I've tried creating both tick bars and 1 and 5 min bars, but nothing seems
to work. What am I doing wrong?

Any help would be appreciated,

PS - If anyone would like a sample of the entire file I tried to load, I'll
be more than happy to mail it.
