Re: Error message in Import Wizard

I've received the following unhandled error message when trying to import an Excel spreadsheet containing around 400 records into Recorder 6.7 - does anyone know what I can do to move onto the next stage of the import?
The message pops up on the 'Data' page of the Import Wizard.

Thanks

Francesca

Charles,

Thanks - skipping the abundance data column has solved the problem.
