Ok as I said I run a small script, here it is:

>>> import csv
>>>
>>> file = open("ShopPrices.csv", "rbU")
>>> reader = csv.reader(file, delimiter=";")
>>> mylist = []
>>> for i in reader:
...     mylist.append(i)
...
>>> mylist[543]
['19ITN992575', '19I', 'TN', '992575', 'RAB-UP-750-H3', 'Triton 19"
heavy duty 150kg shelf plate 750mm 1U black', '39,93', '0', '', '',
'', '', '', '', '', '', '', '', '']
>>> sku = []
>>> for x in mylist:
...     sku.append(x[4])
...
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 2, in ?
IndexError: list index out of range

>>> sku[43]
'PDM2332IEC-3P30R-3'
>>>

It appends all the data till it comes one SKU with empty record ("") .
I tried to use tey and except, but still the same

Thanks
