There aren't many alerts like this, but still, it's annoying. What's the
reason?

since the import file doesn't have quoted strings, and much of that stuff
is made up of numbers, it's easy to see why there's a problem.. my guess
is this field:

70652-00267

but there's no way for me to know for sure, without doing it myself.. not
that I have any desire to do so (g)..

FWIW, if I had to import stuff like that, with questionable content, I'd
open an editor session, scan it, and slam the results into a table
myself.. that way, I can do a ton of formatting and analysis that a
straight import can't..

What do you mean by "editor session", Steve? And, if that UPC field was a
problem, why does Pdox wait until line 20,000-something in the file to have
a problem?
