    Hello,

    I think that i have tried almost all i can on this to get a csv to import. I have 2 gravity forms with the same labels except the form name. I have exported an entry from one form and wanted to import the entry into another form. I have tried in the headers (via excel csv) “example header”, “example header” (and) example header. Both forms are the same (as one was a copy of the other. Exported as csv and then tried to import the exported csv (from GF) yet still no luck! But it shows ALL headers are invalid even though i have tried what i believe to be most header options as above. I tried to follow the link to a previous .csv that you placed in a different thread but it was a bad link? Anyway, any help would be great. Is there something i can send for you to look at please? I have even copied and pasted the screen import LABEL’s into the csv column headers. Regards scoc

    Ok. Glad you got it to work. Transferring to/from excel can often lead to problems when you don’t set the csv parameters correctly in excel. Whenever you export out of excel to csv, for this plugin, you need to make sure that all the fields are double quote encased and comma delimited. That means this:
    “Header 1″,”Header 2″,”Header 3”
    “input 1″,”input 2, second part of input two”,”input 3″
    “input 1″,”input 2, second part of input two”,”input 3″
    “input 1″,”input 2, second part of input two”,”input 3″
    …

    When exporting out of excel to csv, you must ensure that the resulting file is UTF-8 encoded, this is important. Then you need to open the csv file in a good text/code editor to make sure that the export behaved correctly (I use notepad++ for windows).
