Unstructured Data Doesn't Import; replaces w N/A

Postby mrod305 » Thu Dec 08, 2011 10:06 am

I'm using Evies 7.1

I'm trying to import unstructured data from excel. I go to File, open, foreign data as work file. I select my excel file.

Everything looks good so far., I go to Step 1 and select the sheet. How cool, I see my data!

I go to step 2, and I toggle through, making sure everything is good. Data types look right. I see my data. Still goo.

I click next. Now in Step 3, suddenly all my data is coming through as N/A! What gives? I've tried doing an actual import. I've tried .dbf, .txt, .csv. Nothing. I always get the same error.

What's the problem here?

Could you provide us with the Excel file?
