Comment rows into text files intended for Import

[mbarsan]

Searching an occurrence of "import comment" I get no result, so here is my question (as Valdo asked):

Is it possible to include any row of comment into the txt or csv file used to import data into FET?

What can I answer to Valdo?

Thank you!

I read that in Italian :-)

Volker is the best to answer to this.

My answer: please let him try. Normally, if a row does not have the correct number of fields, FET says that that row is invalid and ignore it. If that row has exactly the number of required fields, it will be, incorrectly, imported.

that is correct. so you can do that if you want, but i am not sure if it is good, because you get to many warnings and maybe overlook the important warnings.

maybe it is better to add a new column and add the comment in that new column.
the disadvantage is that fet don't identify that fileformat automaticly, but you will get a form and so you can FET tell in which column is what data. that is a little bit work, but you don't get a warning.
