It looks like for some reason, a ` mark got either added after cv_balance or removed before cv_balance - look on the first line of your SQL file, it currently probably reads something like this:

INSERT INTO cv_balance` VALUES    ...(continued)...

modify it to read like this:

INSERT INTO cv_balance VALUES     ...(continued)...

(i.e. remove the errant backquote)

If you need an editor that can handle large files, try something like vim.
