Hi Eric,

Problem is simple.

You try import as you think coma-separated file that looks as

004-005,5,305,205,245,135,105
006-007,-,-,225,-,-,125
8,-,-,[1],-,-,[1]
9,-,-,225,-,-,125



Valentina for coma-separated file (like Access and FM also) expect that
values are in quotes. You do not have this. And this cause problems.

To resolve task you need simply replace COMA on some special char,
E.g  æ

And use it is field delimiter.

Then all works fine
