Re: [Gretl-users] gretl fails to import time series data from csv
Thank you prof. Allin,
Sorry for not having taken the care of testing or reading the documentation.
Glad that you are always here to correct me :).

Now, looking for the import report, it seems that there is a 1987:01
row breaking the date series:
...
first row label "1987:02", last label "2011:09"
trying to parse row labels as dates...
1987: probably a year... month 02?
1987:01: not a consistent date
but the dates are not complete and consistent
treating these as undated data
...
My guess is a typo and the value should be 1987:10. Otherwise that row
should be reordered to be the first data row.

Actually, that should be OK. Our specification accepts an empty first field
on the first line (along with "obs", "date" and a few other
variants), as
indicating a left-most column of observation labels or dates.
