    Don't understand import error

    When I import a flat file, I've got a couple of fields that I stipulate the section page name in, the rest are blank.

    I get an error like:
    Line 240: Wrong number of fields. Expected 7 but got 6.

    But in spite of this, some of the lines get imported and others do not, there seems to be no consistency. Can the field not be blank for section page name, or for that matter any of the other fields, it seems like if any of them are blank they get an error. And if they cannot be blank, why do some still get imported and others not?
    Regards, Tom

    The 'wrong number of fields' error can sometimes come about in a csv because the file is missing a comma on the end of the line.

    For instance, Actinic will see this...

    Name, Description, Price

    ... as three fields, but will see this...

    Name, Description, Price,

    ... as four.

    If you want any more detail, you are going to have to attach your import file and the error log to this thread.
