use a text editor to cut and paste since you aren't that familiar with the workings of Excel.

Subject: [amibroker] Files not compatible?

I've been trying to find a way to splice csv files together so that I
can splice futures contracts together. I want to create a continuous
contract file, but I can get free data from brite futures. I just have
to be able to splice it. What I've been doing is importing data to
Amibroker, exporting the files to a csv format, and then cutting and
pasting. Or trying to. It seems that every time I modify a file in
Excel I can't use the data in Amibroker anymore. I get a weird prompt
like this:

CN05.csv may contain features that are not compatible with CSV (comma
delimited). Do you want to keep the workbook in this format?

If I click yes then I can't use the file to import anymore - when I
use the wizard I get an error in the date format. If I click no it
gives me the option to change the file to a .xls and then I can't use
it either. Is there a way around this? Why doesn't it just save it in
the same format? I knew there was a reason I became a biologist.
