I checked the file: in the last row uploaded there is an arrow in a cell string, I've tried to delete it but still doesn't work, and the null cells are already empty...any other suggestion? -------- Message d'origine-------- De: owner-statalist@hsphsun2.harvard.edu de la part de Ronan Conroy Date: sam. 11/09/2010 18:35 À: statalist@hsphsun2.harvard.edu Cc: Objet: Re: st: Insheet Issue On 10 MFómh 2010, at 21:46, Jeph Herrin wrote: > > Perhaps an embedded | or <carriage return>; or an empty > row. Have you tried inspecting line 164,502 of the ASCII file? Another nightmare character is the 'Null' character. Try opening your data in a text editor and giving a 'convert to ASCII' command. If you don't have a text editor that does this, you might look at the text editor FAQ and get one as a priority. Very useful for data cleaning!
