<div class="moz-cite-prefix">This is the error I get when importing
or opening my CSV file:<br>

I'm using a file that was generated by Chirp using the export
function, then (In Excel) I copy/paste my channels into that CSV
file. When opened in Chirp using either File/Open or File/Import,
same errors every time.<br>
<br>
So, a little experimentation and I discover that it doesn't like
the empty columns to the right (where there is a column heading
but nothing in the column). So I deleted the column headers (that
Chirp created!) for the columns with no data and voila, it got
past that error. Now I get this one:<br>

<br>
The new error about line 33 "[rTone] could not convert string to
float" I generally get what this error means but don't get what
exactly is causing it. And why does it reference line 33 and only
import up to memory channel 25? I notice at the top of the memory
list window is an item called "Memories Memory Range" where the
default entries are 1 to 25. Bingo! I changed the top end to 39
and it imported all the rows in my CSV file. Wow, I know, there
is a disclaimer about how you guys are good at programming and not
so much at documentation. Not sure I agree with that and the
documentation part seems like a cop out. <br>
<br>
I can't say never, but rarely have I encountered a program so
unintuitive and persnickity. I know, I know, it's free, what do I
want for nothing. I guess I need to lower my expectations. <br>
