Depends on the source. If the CSV file was generated by Excel,

APPEND FROM (GETFILE('CSV')) TYPE CSV

you'll be missing the first record. This is because Fox expects the first line to be the field/column names. Excel doesn't work like that. From Excel 2003, use

APPEND FROM (GETFILE('CSV')) TYPE DELIMITED WITH ","
