After doing some more research, I found this post from ChaosSlayerZ who explains that you need to use Notepad++ when you are editing the eqstr_us.txt file or else it becomes corrupt.

The reason your strings get corrupted is because you screwed up the string file format when edited it with soemthing like regular windows notepad. You need to use an editor which shows and preserves special lien characters which used in that file. Like shell edit or Notepad++.
After making Huppy's suggested changes using Notepad++, I was able to login to the game, error free, and I could now see my newly added line 9190 performing beautifully in game.
