I don't think so. It seems strange that it can't find the data the 
second time you click on "Parse the file" button. I really don't know 
why that is happening. Most of our test data files are Genepix files 
and we have not had any problems with them. I am thinking that maybe 
something gets trunkated or there is a problem with different types of 
linebreaks. Can you send me a few lines from a file with this problem? 
If should be enough with one line of data. If your headers have 
sensitive information please remove them as well.

It works a bit differently in BASE 2. We don't look at a specific line 
number anymore.
