Hello!

What do you have as decimal separator? Comma (,) or point (.)
For example 13,5 or 13.5?
You'll need the point as decimal separator...

Another problem could be that there is an error in the structure, so the 
count of columns is different in different rows - mostly caused by 
having the separator in the data...

Can you make the file available, so that we can have a look on it...?

Hope that helps,
Albin
