Hi,

the following problem occured using the import wizard in EG to load an Excel-file with multiple worksheets.

One worksheet consists of two columns with alphanumerical data followed by columns containing numbers (just plain numbers, without any formats). A row with headings does not exist.

The import-wizard seems to be unable to read the numbers in the first row and puts null-values in the created data set. From the second row on every cell is correctly read.

What can I do?

Andreas,

You should track this with technical support. We've seen similar cases and even fixed some in EG 4.1 hotfixes and in EG 4.2.
