 * I am still working on my new table and found it easier to create the table in
   Excel but i have a real issue now in that the table to be imported has several
   blank rows within the table which are vital to the table structure and when i
   import all blank rows are removed.
 * How do i get around this please?
 * thanks

 * Hi,
 * thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.
 * Please try saving the table as a CSV file in Excel and try importing that.
 * Regards,
    Tobias
