Error messages

Serious errors will halt the loading process. Below are the errors you can encounter and an explanation for each:

The header row contains blank column names

When the first row was identified and you have 'First row contains column header' it validates the column names. If a blank column is found then the whole process is rejected as it needs a valid name for all columns.

The header row contains duplicate column names

When the first row was identified and you have 'First row contains column header' it validates the column names. If two or more columns are found with the same name then the whole process is rejected as it needs a unique valid name for all columns.

The filter you applied has excluded all rows. Reverting to previous data.

The filter criteria you have set does not match any records in the file meaning you would end up with a blank file. The system rejects this filter and reverts to the original data before you applied it.

The header row was identified but no records could be loaded.

This generally means a file has a header row but no other rows subsequently. The process stops as this would be useless for any processing.

The source file is not empty but no rows were loaded. This could be due to all rows being blank or that the Text Mode of x you have set is incorrect for this file.

One of two things has happened, the file is empty or full of just blank rows. The other is that you are working with a file that uses a different character set (code page) than CSV Easy is set to, this can cause the system to not be able to read the characters at all. It seems like the file is empty but its not. Check that your text mode on the open dialog is set correctly.
