Usually you can double click on a particular error line within a conversion report in order to see more details about the error. You would want to make sure you include a header line as defined within the ASCII File Layout Help Topic within The DownLoader: <name>,<ticker>,<date>,<open>,<high>,<low>,<close>,<vol> Advanced Accelerator Applicatio,AAAP,20151127,25.37,26.5,25.01,26.5,15400

Hi Savo, Which version of the DownLoader are you using? Do you have the XLS file open in any other applications? Which version of Windows are you using?
