oh ok, I didn't want you to think i was promoting any particular program.  It's a free program called, " Ron's Editor".  It's completely dedicated to csv files.  The free version does a lot and will do everything we need to do here.

I have the latest version of Open Office.  It also gave me the same error message.  Finally, I used a dedicated csv program and that solved the problem. So other than what the manual shows which is which columns need to be included if you are inserting new or updated products it's safe to not include all of the other columns abantecart generates on export?  Thanks for all your help by the way.

[i can modify, delete column headings in excel but are you saying that all 256 of those unique column headings are required?]

i can modify, delete column headings in excel but are you saying that all 256 of those unique column headings are required?

[When I export the product fields after creating a couple of sample products the result is the maximum number of columns in excel (256 in the older version I am using) all filled with column headings; mostly options, etc. I am wondering if just the product headings in the import/export section of the manual are the ones that I need and if so, can I just include them in my csv file to import or are some of the 256 headings required?(I'm using the latest version Abantecart 1.2.2]
