Paul open office does the same thing. It takes about 10~15 min. to fix it the fist couple times. I then learned to create a tag or to in C3 and export them. Then I take the .CSV from 500 and copy what I want. This way I get to see everything that is in the 500 file and don't have to strip anything out of it.
Side note I am still trying to find what I think works best for this. If the system is stand alone then I don't care to use direct tags. If it is going to be on a massive network then I look at how to reduce the data that is being sent over the network. I know of several guys that use Integer arrays instead of bits for packing data. Does this make a huge difference maybe maybe not.
Paul do you have an example of you data layout?
