I thought I'd post my problem just in case someone else has run into it.
I'm getting some excellent help from splus tech support (thanks
Stephen!), but no real solution yet.
I'm consistently getting these errors when trying to load a comma
seperated file (.csv) into splus. i've tried all different sizes of them
(from 10k files to 1MB files). it's crashing splus.
I get this error message:
"Missing terminal brace ('}') or other enclosure terminator."
Since this message, I've removed all of the {,},[ and] characters and I
STILL get the message!
For more clarification (just in case I'm really doing something wrong).
I'm using the
"Import Data...From File" option and selecting "*.*" type of file and
then opening my CSV
file.
Alternatively, I've been trying:
import.data(DataFrame="dataname",FileName="d:\\donturn.csv",
FileType="ASCII",NameRow=1,StartRow=2,Delimiters=",")
I'm also clearing the History and opening a new workspace before
doing this.
Thanks in advance for any help.
