    Hi, When I try importing the attached CSV file out of over 100 entries only 3 import (lines, 99,121/122 and 159) even though they are identical to the other entries in layout.

    Can you assist at all?
    Thanks

    Is that file compiled with Open Office? Or Excel?

    There are quite a few entries in wrong columns, see image.
    It seems some of the entries are comma delimited and others are not.

    Thanks

    If you copied and pasted from the excel file, that will be your problem, it will have brought some errors with it most likely.
    You should create a CSV file starting in OpenOffice, without copying from Excel.
