Don,

How many records got imported before it failed each time?

  Subject: [Dataperf] Problem with incrementing number


  I was working with a small database today (a county with only about 91,000 
voters) and at a certain point I attempted to create a new panel and import a 
.csv file with about 17,000 lines of data using an incrementing GZZZZZ field as 
an index. Every attempt to import the data failed before completion so I tried 
creating the panel again, exporting and importing the .ste file and re-creating 
indexes. No luck. 


  Inspected raw data. Looked fine.


  Created a stand-alone database with a single panel for this application. 
Again, import kept failing.


  Failing to come up with a credible reason why it wasn't working I added an 
index number to the data set so that rather than depending on the incrementing 
number, the data would have its own unique number. That did the trick.


  Any ideas as to why?
