Hi,
Try deleting the 10 rows immediately below the data, if the rows/cells are protected Clear All doesn't work.

>No, they are visible. I did a Clear on them (hightlight the cells, Edit/Clear/All) and tried the import again and got the same thing.

>CREATE CURSOR ImportCursor;
>	(item c(15), price n(10,2))
>APPEND FROM <ExcelFileName> type xl8
