I see, so the data is just coming in wrong! In general, the procedure should be: Make the template and save it, import the data, turn on Preview to make sure it's more or less working, then import the data, then proof it. If it looks wrong, then choose File > Revert to back to the clean template. Go fix the CSV (or tab-delimited .txt) data and then import it again.

One other possible solution for “fixing empty records” is to set up your grid as a bunch of anchored objects. This doesn't work well with datamerge, but you could probably do it with InData: https://creativepro.com/auto-reflowing-images-in-a-grid.php
