Hello everyone,

I just purchased the full year subscription and I am trying to import my data into a tracker. I have tried using a tab and comma separated file.

The data in column 1 is a Timestamp. Below is an example.
11/25/2009 10:39

I have even tried to remove the time and just use the date.

The second column is a word, but I am not trying to import this column. I have even tried to import the data without the second column.

The third column is a single numeric digit. In the case of the particular file I am trying to import. the number is not greater than 1. A column full of 0 and 1's.

Thats it. Below is a copy and paste of the tab delimited file. It looks like it is pasting well within the code option.

All help is appreciated

Thanks

Code:

Sorry to hear you are having this problem. First, what browser are you using? We currently have an issue with FireFox security not allowing the file to be imported by flash but IE appears to work ok. Second, you have to make sure your file has enough fields in it to satisfy the data you have defined. The best way to see this is to enter some data manually and then export it - this export format is a good starting point for your import file.

If you have tried the above, are you getting specific errors?

Hello,

I just wanted to let you know that using IE8 worked just fine. I had to take a small break from this project because I am overwhelmed with other projects at work.

I do remember that I did not receive any error messages. It would just give a finished message, but no data would show. Everything is working great.

Thanks!
