Re: [Gretl-users] csv import bug on windows?

Hi Sven and Allin, thanks for your help. The original file I attached to the first mail had the unix type of line ending (is this plain??). So I did as you suggested and the error remains under windows 64bit. Here is the gretl output: parsing E:\CollegeDistOrigin.csv... using delimiter ',' longest line: 100 characters first field: 'female' number of columns = 14 number of variables: 14 number of non-blank lines: 342 scanning for variable names... line: female,black,hispanic,bytest,dadcoll,momcoll,ownhome,urban,cue80,stwmfg80,dist,tuition,ed,incomehi scanning for row labels and data... the cell for variable 1, obs 1 is empty: treating as missing value treating these as undated data Again, as I said if I generate the CSV file with CRLF file ending, the error disappears under Windows. I can import the file both under windows and under Linux without error message.
