I found the thread: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.python.web2py/16808 Here is what helped in this particular case: 1) going to the database admin for the table 2) enter the first line of the data and hit enter 3) the validators for field types give feedback on the validity and help to reformat the input file. CSV import seems to have the following conventions: 1) delimiter must be a comma: , 2) a text separator like "<mytext>" is accepted. => I recommend to use Openoffice which has more export options for the CSV export. I would still like to ask for the following feature: * Could the import tool be expanded to add support for more dialiects (e.g. other delimiters)? * Better documentation of the CSV import in the manual or else where. I see that others do also have these problems.
