Adding new seasons products

[SolSearcher]

I did it, horay but this was before Duncans post so I'll try again with his advice.
I just left the headings in place, deleted the the rest up to the first section, then added another product.
The csv file imported with these errors:

Line 11: An invalid Section could not be imported. All child items will be skipped as well.

Line 11: The specified file name conflicts with another file name!
Please enter a unique (ignoring case) file name.

But the new product appears to be fine, is the above a comon error?

You must eliminate all errors.
You'll have to look at line 11 and see what file could be the same as another section

It was the page file name.
Just tried again and it works fine, I really can't belive it.
Thanks to everyone that has replied to my post. Feemish & Rob, thanks for the encouragement.
Just need to tire the kids out so I can get some more work done
At least I'm heading in the right direction.

That won't work. A hierarchical file starts with assorted Header,.... lines that describe the type of data lines that follow and the fields contained in them.

So if you file only contained Sections and Products, you'd need at least these two Header lines. More if you've Components, Attributes, Choices, etc.

Sorry Jay, I only meant to delete those lines so you could concentrate on the actual product lines without getting confused.. but looks like I made you more confused..

As everyone says you need those header lines when you come back to importing the file. Sorry should have explained a bit better..

Glad youre getting it sorted

Glad you got it working Sol, I always find it's somewhat underwhelming when things work as they should! Good to hear Excel 2010 handles csv files better too, looks like im off for an upgrade!

Rob, if you've got any kids then get Office 2010 through software4students I got the pro version really cheap.
