Insufficient number of observation

Dear all,

I'm currently working in a dataset which includes 27 countries over fifteen years (448 observation). I'm trying to run a LS regression in Eviews, and it gives me the error message: "Insufficient number of observations"

Attached is the Eviews working file, and the regression I'm trying to run is
CPI = x + b1cbi+b2finlib+b3nfi+b4growth+b5ers+b6dsd, (e.g cpi C combined)

Have anyone experienced a similar problem and if so how did you overcome it?

All answers are much appreciated!

EDIT: Using EViews 7

NFI and GROWTH appear to be identical.

Sorry had a problem with with the copy and pasting i noticed now. However, I managed to solve the problem, by importing the data differently. Thanks for the answer though!
