Helper IIdata not showing at all
"When I choose 2 or 3 fields, nothing shows up in the window (dont know the correct name for the pane/pain)."
Can you share a screenshot of the pane causing you the pain to help isolate the issue a little more?
Helper IISure, my unsuccessful next, and MS sample successful for comparison.

1) I just finished viewing my csv file and MS sample csv file in an edit prog where I can see ALL the chars in file. The two csv files look the same to me except that MS csv file had blanks around almost all the commas, mine had no blanks before/after each comma.
2) I tried uploading my csv file again. This time a yellow triangle (warn icon) appeared by my "data set name." The info associated was 4 (or5) guids. No real help.
3) I tried "insights" on both csv files. MS one showed a linear trend line. Mine gave msg "no insights available."
4) My file had two minus chars in header row, as dashes between words. I changed these to underscore, no difference.
So Q still remains, what is wrong with my csv file?

I still cannot get my csv to load into BI. The error message is:
Those MS error messages aren't very helpful! That's a thorough analysis and I can't see any problems either, though I've been importing to Power BI Desktop rather than directly to Power BI Service - you have more control over the import process in the Desktop it seems.
Can you test an import to Power BI Desktop? Or upload a (safe) sample of your data here to test?
