I've exported edited and tried to re import a csv file containing extension settings but i'm getting this error?
Must specify valid information for parsing in the string.
 
Hello @SimonKitch

What did you edit in the file if i may ask? You can get this error if some required values are empty or if wrong values are used in some fields.
 
When you export a file Word opens it as a .csv file, when you modify it and then save to import make sure you save it as a .csv (msdos) and NOT just a .csv otherwise it screws up the tabbing.
 
I've populated the columns that had data already but left the rest blank as there are a lot of them. Tried saving as .csv (msdos) but that didn't help either?
 
Try opening the file and delete all rows except one. Make sure it's a new entry and see if that works. That should make it easier to troubleshoot where the error is
 
Just to add make sure all the columns are there.
