I have done a lot of importing and have hard coded character fields and did not encounter the problem you are having.

In addition to it taking longer to map fields, it refuses to both accept a text string into the Character field AND log why it won't. It just gives a popup asking me to confirm that it is skipping each record with a message "Record <number>: For input string: <contents of field 1>". Anyone seen this behavior and gotten past it?
