Hello,
I'm currently working on the impact of Governance (ESG) on corporate investments.
Gretl keeps on giving me an error when importing a file, specifically with the name of the
companies (the tickers).
This is kinda weird, because when i import a very similar .xls file related to Social Data
(with the same tickers) no error is given.
If you could help me with this issue, i would be very thankful!

If you could produce a subset of the file and send it to us, that'd be
very helpful.

It seems that Governance.xls contains a spurious SST (strings
table), carrying the implication that the sheet contains a lot more
rows of data that it actually does (181). This is confusing gretl.
If you export the sheet as comma-separated (CSV) gretl should read
it fine.
Social.xls has a correctly sized strings table so gretl can handle
it OK.
