non-numeric argument? who's arguing?

When I uploaded my latest spreadsheet for AEDL2001, I got an error message that says "Argument "\x{31}\x{34}..." isn't numeric in int at /srv/hymnary.org/scripts/import/backup2db.pl line 1106."
Problem is, I have no idea what it's talking about. The data I entered all seem to have been accepted and posted fine. And the spreadsheet doesn't appear to have anything remotely approaching 1106 lines (if they mean rows). What does the message mean, and is it a problem or something I can just ignore? If it is a problem, how do I fix it and avoid it in the future?

Unfortunately, the error message is giving the location of the error the code, not in your spreadsheet. But it looks like your spreadsheet may contain a number that starts with "24" but is stored as text, instead of as an integer. But it's difficult to tell without seeing the spreadsheet itself. If you would like to email it to me, I could take a closer look.
