Dear Gretl users,
when importing the attached csv file on windows 7 64bit (German
localization) into gretl, it says that the first element in variable 1
(female) is empty. But it is not. See also below the Gretl console output.
When importing into Gretl under Linux (ubuntu 12.04 64bit), everything
works fine, the file is imported without problems.
Does anybody know why this behavior might occur?
Thank you and Best,
Dominik
Here is the Gretl console output:
