BCP problem - help?

I'm attempting to run bcp to copy some files into a database and
receiving a format file error (below). I'm using someone else's format
file that I know already works for them, and I don't know what the
issue is. Below is the error, my bcp statement and format file....can
anyone tell what the problem is? (Note - some of the Collation
values are wrapped b/c of my newsreader - in the format file they are
all on the appropriate line and tab delimited). Thanks.
SQLState = S1000, NativeError = 0

SQL Server see the file, does SQL Server have permissions to access the file
?
