In my last post I was erroneously addressing row 7 instead of 8 ......

After another shut down and restart, the problem has mysteriously solved itself and the file imports as expected - spaces and all.

Very strange.


I hate problems like that! Much prefer problems that are consistent. When a problem oddly "disappears", you're never sure it won't pop up again.

Hi --

I hate to complain because GRASS is such amazing value and I have counted on it for about 20years. However this puzzle seems to be something that just shouldn't happen.  Importing ASCII files has always (for me) been a challenge. Much as I might try, there always seems to be something wrong with my files. Here's a case in point. Simple table with 6 columns and 66 rows -  copy attached.  This was output from R - which is usually very reliable. 

v.in.ascii thinks otherwise..... In the clip you can see that row 8 was broken and only 5 columns detected. Rows 1-7 with identical (to my eyes) formatting are not rejected. But perhaps it doesn't like the space in the geology column string (even though 1-7 all include at least one space) .  Replace the space with an _ and try again.  No luck.  Get rid of the space completely.  No luck.  Try reading the file back into R - no problem. Try reading the file into QGIS - no problem. 

So that's my puzzle for today.  If anyone can see where the problem lies - that would be great. 

I'm running GRASS 8.4 on a 2014 MacBook Pro with OSX 11.7.10. 

Best regards
Stu
